"SHOULD take ["Re: "} into account" and "continue to use ['Re; '] MUST do"
contradict the meaning of "deprecate".  Of course, contrary to your earlier
indication, that text in no way deprecates use of "Re: ".

As I said earlier, I do not want to indulge in religious arguments
regarding the precise meaning of "deprecate". If you want to insist (in
USEAGE) that agents SHOULD NOT place any special interpretation on "Re: "
when they encounter it (which is text #2), then you are not going to get
a consensus in this WG.

My apologies. That message was sent to the wrong list (for reasons
unexplained).
