Is there a way to set the forum to NOT add "Re:" to the subject/topic in replies? With topics going back and forth between the forum and the mailing list, they add up fast.

There has already been one case of a mailing list user manually deleting them from subject lines, which caused his replies to be mis-threaded on the forum. He did so because he was tired of seeing subject lines like "Re: Re: RE: Re: Re: RE: Re: Subject".

You can modify the code to not do that.

I tried deleting:

'!^Re: !i',

from line 214. No change, so I put it back and deleted:

'!Re: !i',

from line 413. No change.

What you were removing was the indexing code...
What you want is something like this
<?php
$this
->subject = str_replace('Re: ', '', $this->subject);
?>

Where would this go? I tried pasting it into a couple of locations within the file, but couldn't get it to work.

Sorry, I'm not a php programmer. If I ever get the time, I'd like to study it.
