I hope the @-sign will not become a flame war. It's ridiculous. Is it possible to close this thread? Regards, Ralf JFTR the "@Name" is often used on Linux mailing lists, by users who don't have accounts at social networks, who don't top-post, who send mails in plain text, who don't break threads, who use sane line wrapping, who ask smart questions and are helpful to others. It's the very first time that I read the "@Name" is offending style and netiquette.
