automatic subject prefix in Email Contact

So far, all people that contacted me via the Email Contact from CCMixter landed in my Spam filter (not the pesons of course but their messages, pitiful enough).
Luckily, I fished two of them out of my trash bin and added them to my welcome sender list. Hopefully nobody’s message got lost.
So, the idea is to automatically put a recognizable prefix into the subject so mails from until-now unknown Mixters can be more easily found.
Example: Prefix “CCMixter-Fellow: ” would make of the typed subject “Could I have the pellas of XY” a subject received by the mixter: “CCMixter-Fellow: Could I have the pellas of XY”.

An alternative idea could be a notification mail from CCMixter. Means: If somebody tries to contact me, I get 2 mails, one from the person YZ who uses the Email Contact, and another one from Watch.Your.Mail@ccmixter.org warning me not to trash the mail from YZ. What do you think?
