Jamnntpd users file has the 5th field which is used for sending/reading private netmail messages. It may contain multiple names to receive netmail, but the first name is always used for outbound. === Cut === # User configuration file for JamNNTd # # Syntax: # # [] # # "*" means "all groups" and "-" means "no groups". # # Optionally, you can also specify one or more "real" names for the user. # Multiple names are separated by a comma. It is necessary to supply # realnames if you want to use JamNNTPd with netmail as users can only read # netmails to or from one of these names. It is possible to use the "?" # and "*" wildcards in the realnames. # # It it also only possible for a user to cancel messages that were written # by a name that matches their realnames. # # When a user posts a message, the first realname is used as the from name # unless it contains wildcards. If the first realname contains wildcards or # if no realnames are supplied, the from name is taken from the From: header # line of the posted message. # # If you use non-ascii characters in the realname, they should be in the # character set used on the NNTP side, most often iso-8859-1. tommi xxxx * * "Tommi Koivula,sysop,fake user" === Cut === 'Tommi --- * Origin: rbb.fidonet.fi (2:221/360) .
