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. :)

These postings from Joe Contester raise this point; should it not be 
standard practice that people posting to cq-contest sign either their 
call-signs or their real names?
