have date in the subject instead of just "sms"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

it would be much better if the subject was something like "sms 2nd feb 09" 
rather than just "sms" thought i know we can change the subject but theres 
no way to include the date

The subject determines the thread title in Gmail and including the date there 
would 
not make sense.

Sorry I dont think I explained this properly, I meant to say it would be better 
if
the subject (not the label) was something like "Sms with user on 2nd feb 09" 
instead
of "Sms with user" - is there any way to do this?

I've tracked it down in the code and its on line 129 in the file 
CursorToMessage.java
url is
http://code.google.com/p/android-sms/source/browse/branches/android-client-1.0.0
/src/tv/studer/smssync/CursorToMessage.java

is there a way to attach the sms date so it becomes 

msg.setSubject("SMS with " + record.name + " on " + smsDate );

I hope you don't mind me replying to a thread which you've marked as wontfix.

The subject of the first message determines the thread title in Gmail. So all 
messages from one user will be grouped in a thread titled "sms 2nd feb 09" in 
your 
example. This does not make sense, because there might also be messages in that 
thread that were not sent/received on that date.

We could create new threads in Gmail for each new date, but I don't think 
that's what 
the majority of people want.

Also, please note that the label is more like a "folder" where the SMS messages 
should be filed into in Gmail. This has nothing to do with the title/subject 
(which 
is "SMS with [contactname]").
