[savannah-help-public] [sr #108500] User specification of "Subject" line doesn't seem to work

[Bob Proulx]

Update of sr #108500 (project administration):

                Severity:           4 - Important => 2 - Minor

Follow-up Comment #2:

This is a feature that I didn't know existed until your report.  I turned it
on for me so that I could test the feature before commenting upon it.  And
then rather forgot about it for a while.  Then messages started coming through
with the subject header and I remembered it.

As far as I can see the feature seems to only be active for your own postings.
 Other people's postings do not have the custom header.  By my own do.  I
think that must be just the way it works.  Probably it was only partially
implemented in the web site code.

The feature seems of limited utility.  But it seems to do what it seems to do.
 There hasn't been active development of Savannah for a while.  It has been in
a deep maintanence mode only.  There isn't really anyone to comment upon the
feature or to implement changes to it.

If this is something you felt like contributing then patches would always be
welcome.  But otherwise quite frankly I don't think it would get improved to
handle that better otherwise.  Since so far no one has volunteered to own the
ticket myself included.

While this does seem like incomplete implementation because it doesn't break
the system in general and most people won't even notice I am downgrading the
severity from important.
