So, we are unable to add names with the entries :-( If they posted to a public list, I don't see any privacy issues with showing their name. We could allow some to opt-out, but we don't even offer that feature with our email archives, so I don't even see the point of that. Finding the location of the IP address is also public, so I don't see the issue here. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073
