 mentioned on Slack]:

 > I selectively did this for a few of our forms with Seattle and it did
 seem to helwork. For instance, the speaker application subject was
 "[asdfasdf] WordCamp Speaker Application: {title}, {name}"

 I didn't know the Gmail issue with brackets. That definitely sounds like
 it'll fix the technical problem.

 From a pure email management perspective, I'd suggest we update the
 default subject lines to include at least the
 sender/submitter/applicant/purchaser name for easier reference and
 searching. That may require a different change to the default content, but
 I thought I'd mention it here in case it's appropriate to make both
 changes at once.

 In the same vein, could the random string appear at the end of the subject
 so it doesn't distract from the part intended for humans?
