What are you talking about??? That has to be an artifice of Gmail (and other clients?) -- every single message I've seen in every one of those topics has the [php] marker, just not always in exactly the same place:

[php] About DOM function in PHP
Re: [php] About DOM function in PHP
[php] Re: About DOM function in PHP
Re: [php] Re: About DOM function in PHP

[php] Pirate PHP books online?
Re: [php] Pirate PHP books online?
[php] Re: Pirate PHP books online?
Re: [php] Re: Pirate PHP books online?
[php] Re: Re: Pirate PHP books online?
Re: [php] Re: Re: Pirate PHP books online?
Re[2]: [php] Re: Pirate PHP books online?
Re: Re[2]: [php] Re: Pirate PHP books online?

I think I can kinda see a logic in there to do with a combination of smart and dumb email clients, and when the PHP list server adds a [php] marker, but I leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out what it is...

Bottom line, the [php] marker *is* there on every message, and if you're not seeing it it's 'cos your client is (for whatever reason) stripping it.

Cheers!

The only threads were [php] is missing for me are the threads that I started.
All others start with [php] or Re: [php]

Yeah, that's what I narrowed it down to as well. Must be a Gmail thing.
