   I used to be able to change th name on my postings by putting the
   preferred name in brackets after the user-name in the "From:"
   field.  What is the correct way to do so now?

You'll have to be a bit more specific about what you mean by "change
the name on my postings."  Do you mean your full name, or the E-mail
address that people will see?

You'll also have to be a bit more specific about what you mean by
"brackets."  There are several kinds.

Perhaps you could illustrate what you mean by showing what the "From:"
line looks like originally, and what you change it to.
