Is the above subject line illegal according to the RFC?  Please note
that Re^2: is actually part of my subject that I've chosen and was
not generated by any newsposter.

The reason I bring this up is because I beleive replies shouldn't be
controlled by the Subject: line, but by References: lines.  Many
times a thread wanders off a beaten path, but keeps the same subject
line, even though it has nothing to do with the topic at hand.  But
I am merely telling you things you already know. :-)

I'm getting into dangerous territory here, as I am dredging up an old
subject brought back to life by Brad Templeton a few months ago.
Speaking of which... did anyone come up with any solutions to the
References: line thread following problem?
