I must admit I don't like "m-". It is not mnemonic enough for me, 
the way 'mf' is.

Yeah, let's avoid non-ASCII characters in the header. ;-) If 'mf' is 
too awkward, I'd certainly be happy with:
[uf-discuss]
[uf-announce]
[uf-rest]
I'd have to Greekify it in my head, but I could learn to live with 
that...
