I accidently sent a private reply instead of a reply to the list on this

I think it's easier to scan headers if they're the only thing that starts
all the way to the left, and it seems that others agree with me.  Look
at man pages, for one example.

For another example, subscribe to the "This is True" newsletter
(www.thisistrue.com).  It's an interesting newsletter you'll probably
enjoy, anyway, and it's free (there's a non-free version for those who
want more stories and no ads), and all news items have a left justified
heading, with the story itself indented three spaces.  I haven't heard
of any complaints, and Randy (the author of the newsletter) would
likely publish complaints if there were any (at least a representative
sample) even if he didn't agree and didn't want to change the format.
