More a feature request than anything - which grifferz said he'd handle:

Basically currently a news item is sent with the subject "Blitzed News
Flash!" to the public mailing list. This plays havoc with threading in
thunderbird, and other mail apps that thread on a per subject basis.
Obviously the underlieing problem is that there is no way to force
thunderbird to thread based on Message-ID and References. For those who
care the bug is: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=223931 <---
there.

Anyway my proposal, which grifferz said he would implement (but if not
done in a week maybe someone else would be interested) is to update this
title to read:

"Newsflash: Subject From News Item"

This looks tidier, and provides the reader more idea what the email is
about!

Thank you kind bug fixers.
