thanks again for your help.

I have two more questions: 1) I assume you have helped others with this kind of question before? if so is there anything I have missed in this type of question? (any other information which might be helpful which I have failed to ask about?)

Also I don't really know if you will be able to help me on this question, I am still thinking about an assumed name, but I having trouble thinking of something memorable which isn't personal to me: do you know any where I can get help with this? (I have never done anything like this before).

thanks

: It depends on what is showing up that you want to hide and where
: it's showing up. For example, if your Yahoo ID has part of your
: name in it, then you will want to create a new Yahoo ID. If your
: name is part of your email address, you will need a different
: email address. You might want both, but I can't really decide
: that for you.

: Also pay attention to how your email is set up. Typically people
: set up their email with a Name associated with it, so when they
: sent an email, their name is associated. I don't know anything
: about setting up Yahoo addresses so you would have to pay
: attention to that as you are setting that up (I'm assuming
: you're using Yahoo email only because you posted here that way).

: If it means you have to re-join a class, just make a comment when
: you join the class that you changed your email and already
: talked to Kathleen about it.

: Hope that helps.
