[ale] Everyone was born knowing this

Testing for the username portion of an email address...


ADDRESS="me at there.com"
MNAME=`echo $ADDRESS | awk -F@ '{print $1}'`
if [ $MNAME = "me" ]
then
        echo It is me
else
        echo It is someone else
fi

Everyone was born knowing unix. Some, through debauchery and excess,
have forgotten their birthright.

I suddenly seem to be receiving email from the list again after a long
hiatus. And yes, like Bjorn I got a new welcome message with a new
password, which appears to be valid.
