Is it possible to add [Mercurial] prefix to messages from this mailing list?

Looks like you're a GMail user; if you're you're reading the mailing list
with GMail, it's really easy to apply a filter to tag the post, which may
help whether or not the subject line changes occur.

While you're reading one of the messages, use the More button at the top of
the page.  It gives you a dropdown menu, from which you select "Filter
messages like these".  In my filter, I have under "Has the words" the value
"list:(<mercurial.selenic.com>)".  After filling that in, click "Create
filter with this search" to get to the actions.  I choose "Apply label"
(Hg-user in my case), and push "Create filter" to make it so.

For the developers' list, I also select "Skip inbox", and then view the
messages by browsing to that tag ("folder" to be imprecise).

I hope this helps.
