Description
It would be rather useful to be able to remove the standard markers like "Fwd:" "WG:" "RE:" etc from subjects to be able to correllate them easier if the mails were not directly received
[I would be willing to implement this, if it is wanted]

Research direction
Start by locating the imported-mail handling and the code that preserves or normalizes message subjects. Check how subject values are used for correlation, then define the supported common markers and verify that removing them improves matching without changing unrelated subjects. Done means imported subjects are normalized consistently and covered by appropriate tests.
