Dear People Named Bill,

Please don’t choose an email like william.lastname@isp.com, and then email me and sign your email Bill, because then I will never find your email again because I will be looking for bill.lastname@isp.com.

Also, if everybody calls you Bill, make sure your “Display Name” is “Bill Lastname” not “William Lastname”. That’s just common courtesy, dude.

Thanks!

-Bob
