[haggis] Problem with long card names



(Summary of a discussion in game 88.  I'm sending it here so it won't get
lost.)

In game 88, I'm unable to offer some trades I'd like to make because the
card names are long and some email handler between me and the server is
wrapping my subject line at 80 characters.  That truncates a card name and I
get an error for trying to trade a card that doesn't exist.

Someone suggested the following:

Someone else recommended that each card type in a game begin with a
different letter to make this even easier.
