FWIW, here is some friendly advice.

Unless your name really is "Brown Cow", don't bother trying to use your
email name to get attention. The days when that was considered l33t or
even funny are long gone. When I saw your original post, I just assumed
that you were too clueless to know how to set that field, just like the
people who send emails as "Default User" or "Please set to your name".

And don't embarras yourself further by trying to impress people on this
list with how long you have been doing this. I've been developing
software since 1977, and I've been on the internet since 1986-ish, and
I've never felt the urge to use anything other than my real name on
emails.

Just my $0.02 worth.

   Craig
