Replying to people (was TRS-80 model II)

Just a note to people: when you e-mail someone directly; don't use an
email-address that has something like "your name
<yournameDIE.YOU_at_SPAMMERmydomain.com>" in it. Using Microsoft Outlook
(which I do), it just shows <your name> with the SMTP portion hidden. After
the mail bounces, I'm less inclined to type the whole message again and edit
your user name. So that reply to you offering to sell you the complete
Altair for $50.... well, you didn't get it.

I mean, it's a direct e-mail, not the mailing list. If you think I am going
to spam you... come on.

Ok, now that, I've jumped all over Arfon, I have to say it's nothing
personal and I apologize in advance. it's just not the first time that it's
happened. it's just that I don't even see anything until the mail bounces.
