Anyone else have something to add?

Yeah.  Restrict the use of the [Fanfic] header to fanfics and CC's on the 
'fic only.  Case in point, this thread itself which someone labeled as 
'[Fanfic]'

I think (WW, please correct me if this is wrong) that [fanfic] is added
automatically by the system.  I know I've never added it, but it shows up on
all the posts I originate.

We should also add the heading [Info] for info requested. 
Also we might want [Annoucement] for anyone giving out info e.g. the Con 
trips, webpage announcements, etc.

That brings our categories to:
[Spam], [Spamfic] <-- .sig chars go here :)
[Info], [Announcement] <- side notes, not quite spam, but not 'fics either
[Fanfic] <- the whole point of the ML
[Admin] <-- WW's use only

Good choices! :)
