But can’t the other person see that you changed the title of the topic? They might have trouble to find the message now because the title is different, especially if it’s a different language or something like that.
That’s why I label the message when I first write to the people when I start the message and I can’t change yours or anyone else titles just mine and I usually just write
(@DWMcG address)
To me, this is much more confusing and also as others have mentioned, people’s addresses can change frequently. I always want to verify address even if I’ve sent people things before so this would not work for me.
I keep addresses in a notebook, cross-referenced alphabetically with “serial number” as I get them in Excel. So, I can see if I have PeteX456? (Yes, go to notebook entry 34.) From now on, I’ll add “unless moved recently” to my tag post.
I just noticed that while Regulars can change titles almost everywhere in the forum, they cannot do so in private messages that were started by someone else! My point is moot in any case.
