ADMIN: Subject Tags

Hi All,

Every once in a while I like remind everyone about using the standard
iris-talk subject tags, as described in the welcome message, to preface
the subject lines of the messages you send to the list. For the people
who use filters to sort their mail the subject tags are critical. 

Remember, the format is the tag in ALL CAPS followed by a colon (:),
followed by your subject. (no space between the subject tag and the colon)

[Subject tag]:[your subject description]

The colon is a very important part of the tag. The standard tags are
below. You might want to print this for reference.

Thanks 

John
