Will you guys please stop doing this!?

Are logins really in such short supply at Farnell that each of you can't

have one, or are you too lazy to log in properly and "Matt Collinge" is

some sort of catch all acount?

This may work for you folks, but it's rather annoying for the rest of the

world.

Greetings CadSoft users. The CadSoft forums are now available on

www.element-14.com/cadsoft. Fear not, your beloved forums will remain

available for you to access via your favorite newsgroup reader, but now you

can also read and post to them via element14. Anything posted on one will

sync and be avialable to users on the other.

We hope this will allow us to serve even more members of the engineering

community and share with them the benefits of EAGLE.

Sincerely,

Christy Zurcher - element14 Manager

Not really a bug.  That email account was first used by Matt Collinge

during testing (really shouldn't have used a permanent email account).  In

any case, all new posts with that email address are grouped as being part

of this account with Matt's name on it.

I'll change this email to Christy's name since it seems she is the one who

now uses it.

Cheers,

James.

No, that needs to be fixed at eaglecentral (resp. FUDforum).

 

Remember the discussion when Olin called me "User"?

FUDforum is simply wrong in assigning /anything/ to a given "from:"

address. It should just take the provided real name and display that.

Nothing else.

Whether you agree with that or not, in any case everyone at Element14

shouldn't be using the same FROM: address.

Thanks, James. Let me know if there is something I need to do/change on my end as well.

Christy

Actually, I take that back.  It looks like every message coming through

the Element14 portal has the return email address the same (I won't post it

in plain text).  Check out the thread in eagle.support.eng named DesignLink

XML elements.  The first two messages came from element14.  There are

different names but the same email address.

eaglecentral sees the same email address and assigns it to that account.

But the real problem is that element14 gives every message the same return

address!

So that needs to be fixed at element14.
