Yeah, obviously I know about those strings! However I specifically wanted the product name because experience tells me it's more valuable when googling - the product name will furnish more useful hits than just the ID strings.
* for some reason since the DCGLUG mailer rejigging Google insists on 
junking most of the list emails even though I've told it not to. I've 
got a message filter rule in Thunderbird to reclassify DCGLUG mailing 
list stuff and move it to the correct folder _and_ it's set to run 
_before_ junk mail classification _and_ run periodically. Yet I still 
have to routinely go into Junk and run the filter manually to get half 
of the DCGLUG emails turn up in the correct location. So annoying. Am 
I the only one?
#annoyingcraptofix entry 1020347835, so not exactly high on my 
priority list right now.
In Thunderbird my filter for the DCGLUG mailing list (also before junk) now has a custom filter for 'List-ID' and looks for 'Devon'. That gets filtered properly. That was suggested - I forget who by sorry - with the recent change.
Hope that helps!
