In TFM, it explains what the environment variable SUBJLINE means.
If you set SUBJLINE= %s %z %t, you will get this format when you
use the '=' command.  Your operating system shell will dictate how you
have to set the environment variable.  In kshi, it is the line:

export SUBJLINE="%s %z %t"

in your .kshrc or .profile.
