And here's another take on harnessing the magical powers of the subject line. This time from more of an e-newsletter perspective and with a bit more detail.
Given the conflicting advice you often read on this topic, it is important to distinguish between email promotions and email newsletters.

The latter need subject lines of a more reassuring, non-salesy branding nature, which don't necessarily have to give specifics.
Of course, nothing is set in stone. So at the risk of repeating myself, if they took a scan of your heart, they should find the words "test, test, test" emblazoned across it.
