So i reproduce before examples;; Subject: Each organization's naming convention: FN = family name ON = other names (given name or middle name or etc.) [1] IANA's Rules: <URL:http://www.iana.org/>; naming order: followed by local convention other rules: FN ===> all capital letters EX) "LIN Ching-Hsia" (Origin: "Lin Ching-Hsia") [2] NCBI's Rules: <URL:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/>; naming order: FN first! other rules: FN, + ON EX) "Lin, Ching-Hsia" (Origin: "Lin Ching-Hsia") [3] FreeBSD's Rules: <URL:http://www.freebsd.org/>; naming order: ON + FN (it seems like Western Style) EX) "Ching-Hsia Lin" (Origin: "Lin Ching-Hsia") How do you make your name in the From entry of EMail?
