This is from my default rc.local.s20 recipies that I use for =
SmartLists.. It also (pre|ap)pends the body of (header|trailer).txt

lists@binky [11:31am](1):2:/var/lists> more cincyrave/rc.local.s20=20
# RC file to insert a topic into the subject, or insert
# a header or append a trailer

# If the variable "topic" is defined, and non-null, it will
# be inserted into the subject: (ie: Subject: [$topic] blah blah...).
# Contributed by Carlos Garcia <cgarcia@isabel.dit.upm.es>

# If the file "submit-header.txt" exists, it will be prepended
# to all submitted mail.

# If the file "submit-trailer.txt"  exists, it will be appended
# to all submitted mail. =20

# The variables $list, $domain, $listmaster, and $maintainer will
# all be substituted into the header or trailer.

topic=3D$list             #uncomment and posibly modify if you want
                        # a [topic] in your subjects.
