Hello Ross. I assume that you are referring to me.

If so, I apologize, and wish to inform you that it was not intentional.

Just so you know, yesterday, Michael Alyn Miller, who is the developer of the
BBS software that I use, and also my FidoNet uplink -- he is Region 10 RC --
emailed me a new copy of the BBS software. What I didn't realize until a few
minutes ago, is that upon upgrading my BBS with the new version, it knocked
out one of my New User settings, or more specifically, asking the user for
their real name. As a result, with that option disabled, somehow it also
disabled the "Use Real Names" option in all of my FidoNet echoes. Thus, my
alias appeared in a few messages that I have sent out.

To make matters worse, Michael has added an automated Crashmail feature which
is lightning fast. The very minute someone on my BBS saves a messages, or
sends a netmail, the Crashmail feature polls my uplink. I was very surprised
by how fast it works.

Anyway, that's what's been going on, since yesterday, I assume. We are 17
hours ahead of USA West Coast time here.

Again, I apologize for the oversight.
