I am a fairly new net user/reader and have two questions.

	1) How does one set up the individual ID information
	   that appears as the author's location when posting
	   articles to the net?  Mine defaults to something
	   that is not correct or desirable.  I have seen people
	   put all sorts of unique stuff there.

	2) How does one interpret or figure out the author's
	   e-mail address??  I use uucp but don't understand
	   the syntax of these other network addresses.

I know that there are some friendly net-people out there who
will take a few moments to respond.  I thank you whole-heartedly!!!
