Request to move the category tags to the end of the subject line in mailing list mode

Then I think we should move forward with this. Just to make it clear, this will affect every discourse user. Not just mailinglist mode subscribers. (For the better, I think)

Poll

Given the fact that it affects everyone and significantly increases the email usability, I think a poll at this point is not needed. Just more of a heads up to those users as they are the most likely to be using category filters.

Action Plan (proposal)

This is just a proposal. I can deal with implementing them. Just wanted to know if it’s a good plan of action.

  1. Change subject line to be in the form of:

    [%{site_name}] %{optional_pm}%{topic_title}%{optional_cat}
    
  2. Notify email mailing list mode users about the filter change.

  3. Add pinned post on Forum Feedback forum with notice about this change (unpin after 1 month)
