Default Changing sublect line of an incoming message.

Hello all:

I use Outlook 2003 at work, and I subscribe to a ListServ mailing list.
My rules have all of the messages from this list put into a separate
folder.

Within this folder, I like to group messages by conversation threads.

The only problem is, when the messages arrive, for some reason there
usually is about 5 or 6 spaces at the front of the subject line.
Therefore, the threads end up being split into 2 separate threads: One
containing the original subject, and one containing the "
subject".

I *think* this is occurring as a result of the preceding spaces in the
subject line before the "".

Is there any way to (automatically) modify the subject lines as they
arrive so the messages are grouped properly? All of the messages with
preceding spaces contain exactly 5 spaces before the actual subject.
(And some messages contain no extra spaces in the subject line,
confusing things more!)

Thanks for your help!
