[Elecraft] Signing your posts, KPA1500, KPA500

[Walter Underwood]

Mail User Agents (MUAs) show your name rather than your email address because you’ve formatted the From to suggest that.

This is from the mail header:

    From: Bob Nielsen <n7xy at n7xy.net>

If it was formatted like this:

    From: Bob Nielsen N7XY <n7xy at n7xy.net>

The MUA would get the hint to show “Bob Nielsen N7XY” to the user.
