I tried it today and it works for me! :-)

I only improve the regexp to:

r"^(Re|Fwd|Fw):( Re?:)+"

because your solution don't works with the subject in format "R: Re:
Subject" and produces the "Re: Re: Subject" line. Now it works for any
"R: Re" combination:

Subject 		-> Re: Subject
R: Subject 		-> Re: Subject
R: Re: Subject 		-> Re: Subject
Re: R: Re: Subject 	-> Re: Subject
R: Re: R: Re: Subject 	-> Re: Subject 

Only one thing is left - the subject manipulating changes the content and
closing compose window without any other change invokes the confirmation
dialog (Save, Concept, Cancel) - of course, only when the subject line was
changed. Is here solution to prevent showing this confirmation from this
script, please? Same flag, or something else, i don't know.

Thanks, but I prefer to use the distribution packages, because the
maintainers maintain the updates for me, and building own version only for
one people - i encounter this only now in years…
