Amusing ... there has been a lot of speculation off the reflector that,
given your pseudonym, you probably were someone else.
Anyway, I stand by my point -- one shouldn't have to search for IP
addresses to know the identity of someone who posts on a reflector. If you
really didn't intend to obscure your identity, the From: line would have
said W2EV, or you could have signed your messages.

Hi Pete,
There is no ominous intent here. I'm Ev, W2EV. I'm attempting to
segregate my email accounts by area of interest...nothing more. If anyone
were so inclined, they could easily check the IP address of the emails in
thier "trash" folder and match up an anonymous post with others already
received. It's easy to do.
As long as folks engage in on-topic and non-attacking email threads, I
don't see the harm in not IDing with every "transmission". :)
On a personal note, I've received so many emails with my name misspelled
anyway, I'm not certain it really matters anyway.
Even so...there's no mystery here. It's me. :)
