Steve- This may be a stupid idea, since I have a Mac, and things may be different with you; but way back when, I was told that if I had a phony address at the top of the address book list, that this phony name would screw up the hackers, and generally cause them to discard any other address

Lee, Thank goodness you are in "the know". Harry has beat me to the punch, but I not only want to know how this is done, is it program specific? If I normally use Apple's mail and if I am using the digitally signed mail and then use Gmail one day do the signatures cross over to the other acco
