FWIW, I do. Having [Org] (or anything, really) prepended to the subjects
of _all_ mails coming from a list that is already uniquely identifiable
(e.g. by its address) has no information value altogether (unlike
[Babel], [PATCH] etc.) and only takes up the much precious Subject:
header space.
I have never understood why anyone would like anything like that.
If you want to somehow treat the mails from this list specially, why
don't you filter on the presence of the mailing list address in the
headers, for example?
