To set a subject of the mail now is possible creating a group with the addressee, but this is not so user-friendly and the option “new group or subject” in the contact info is not so clear.

## Expected behavior

Subject should be set as option:  
-as attachment (like in Samsung “Messages”)  
-with long press on “arrow” symbol (like to send SMS with Signal)
