To get more anwers in this mailinglist I would put your real name when sending email, it's a matter of politness I guess. ;)
I didn't wish to be impolite. Are there any guidelines on this list as to what one can call oneself? I used my internet nic without thinking when I signed up in kmail. My real name is Steve Sheriff and I live in Alicante. Is that OK?
I personally do not have a problem with that, but a lot of people won't even read your email on this list, if they do not see your real name in the email. Just setup your email program with your real name so that the Sender states your name, e.g. Steve Sheriff < Nobody forces you to do anything, but it is a question of ettiquette, i.e. good manners, some have them, many don't. It's up to you. http://www.dhaller.de/linux/etiquette-e.html Sven -- << s.burmeister@lancaster.ac.uk * sven.burmeister@gmx.de >> :: Have a look at Germany :: http://www.lancs.ac.uk/ug/burmeist/
