Upper case letters in the subject?

Posted by pronay
I just wanted to start a thread in the general forum with this Subject:

"R520/T39 update for SyncML and 4+1 GPRS?"

But, strange enough, I got an error message "Don't use upper case letters in the subject" or the like.

So I changed "GPRS" to "gprs", and it worked. But I find this quite senseless – because in fact it *is* spelled GPRS, not gprs.

Did I do something wrong or is the forum SW buggy?

Sorry about that, but it's a limit on 5 capital letters for a subject. It's done to avoid SCREEMING SUBJECTS. I have changed your gprs to GPRS ..

Laffen has set a limitation to 4 capital letters in the subjectline to avoid people making 'disturbing' subjectlines and headings.

Thank you both for explaining, and thanks to laffen for editing!
