Not a single one of the other lists on the Red Hat mailman server do so.
Filtering doesn't have to be done just on the subject line, anyhow.
Personally, I filter for these lists based on the To and CC lines. I
filter for "fedora-list at redhat.com" for this list,
"redhat-list at redhat.com", "shrike-list at redhat.com", etc.
Works just as well.
