    Also this QA could be considered as Not Programming Related! if you’re not gonna fork wp-mail.php to provide yourself with a specific format you like.
    I believe that’s a quite easy job, just parse your mail title or body for a special markup like for example: ##cat:5## in the for statement (line 47) and assign that to your ongoing post.
    As it seems, the feature is now implemented for the wordpress.com blogs using shortcodes, according to this page. Not sure if it’s the same for a standalone installation but it worth a try, I think.
