I will be removing the list prefix "LLVMDev" from the subject line. If you are filtering by this, please use the list headers instead. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you, Tanya

It makes it much harder to skim down emails in the inbox and see which ones are related to which list. David

I meant to say that I'm removing [llvm-commits] only from the prefix and LLVMDev will stay for now. This is just a notification to the LLVMDev list. -Tanya

Just matching the list addess in to or cc field does not work as it has the following problems: 1) bcc would still not math the filter 2) both copies of a reply that comes to both own address and list would match the list filter.

Due to the heavy traffic on LLVM mailing lists, one needs some kind of filtering to keep only the relevant emails in the inbox. Since my ISP's email server doesn't support any server-side email filtering, I used to filter the e-mails visually. It was easy to ignore emails with the subject prefixed with LLVM or cfe (or both). Right now I can only see 200 emails in my inbox and I cannot distinguish between them. I personally also preferred the file names in the subject, since that allowed me to visually filter the commits in my areas. However, if we all start prefixing the commit messages with the area (as some already do), this problem is gone. Nuno
