Hi,
lets say there is
- no real name at all (generated by all sorts of feedback forms)
- the name(s) you use for sending your own mail, and that people reply to
- some names you use on purpose, and you know about (you might put some distinctive
names there, to sort those bcc copies)
- random names that some spammers made up
I dont seem to have too many real correspondents that make a fun of inventing new
real names every day....
