Dear Sir/Madam,

Can you please tell me how I can change my address to add a name 
at the front of it.  That way I can have a name in front of my 
address which is currently just [email-masked]  I would 
like people to know who is sending them mail rather than them just 
receiving my address.

If you can help I would be most grateful.

Thankyou,

Yours,

Sunil Chamund.

This is easy in Pine: Go to the main menu and select Setup, Config. The
first field you should see is for a personal name that will be placed in
front of your address in the headers. At this point you can use Add,
Delete and/or Change to adjust the field to your needs. Normally your
correct name should be in the system's accound database (/etc/passwd), in
which case Pine automatically derives your name from there (you have to
keep this field empty for this to happen). Your Email address is
automatically appended to your name (by Pine), so you don't have to enter
this yourself. Good luck !
