I have another feature request, just because it's still valid today, to some extent..
Right now, I have an autosig on my own BBS, and I have FidoNet, and most FidoNet (if not all) require real names. However my BBS, and most
people's BBS, has nickname/handles as primary for message posting and such. As such I imagine most people that setup an autosig account for
that making their autosig in relation to their handle.
It would be cool if you could setup an autosig for alias and real name differently so that when you posted on a message base that Real Names are flagged on it would use that autosig, rather than the default one used
for handles.
Secondary to that, and still also desired, is the ability, in the message editor itself, to specifically turn on/off the autosig for that specific posting. So I could simply just turn it off if I don't want to use it, useful for netmails too.

From what I understand, the Fidonet echos that require real names only require that on the message header.
If a poster wants to add a sig that
incorporates their alias, then there's no harm in that. So, basically, one sig should be good for both kinds of areas, even if the sig uses the alias, and not the real name.

most of them allow for the signature to contain the poster's real name
if the system they are posting from cannot put their real name in the header...

agreed...
aside: did you respond to my netmail about my password on your system? i saw where you posted in another topic that you received it but i haven't seen any arrival of your response on any of the systems running here...
i have to dig to figure out which system i wrote that initial netmail
from :/

Yes, I had responded to it just before I posted that note about the netmail quirkyness.

Makes me think that there's a break in the chain somewhere.
Do you have an email? I can send you the password that way.

yeah, use my name at gmail ;) make sure you put "[FTN]" at the
beginning of the subject line, please...
