Agreed. But the value is lost when somebody replies to all (which preserves the to/cc) while addressing somebody who's been ccd. It really should be TO
that person, cc the original mailer.
Even worse are subject lines. Immensely useful, until the conversation drifts.
Or when somebody needs an email address and just replies to an old (irrelevant subject) email without updating the subject line. I'm of the exalted opinion that the form to create email should have the subject line at the bottom, probably labeled "summary", and the email won't send unless you either fill it in, check a box saying "no summary", or check a box saying "Yes, this (prior) summary is still valid. Use it".
Oh, and jif. Like genie.
