Question

RSS and signatures

The vast majority of messages in the RSS feeds are identified as being "posted by forums@adobe.com". Rarely the poster's email address is given. Would it be possible to make this latter behaviour the default?

    Don't you think that those with a poster's address are submitted by email

    (like this one), the rest posted at the forum site?

    But in the RSS feed your message was attributed to forums@adobe.com. So I think not.

    If I view my post as fed by RSS into IE7, this is what I see.

    Do you get something different?

    If people have set their email address as private in their forum profile

    the RSS feed should respect that. I do believe it would be a reasonable

    alternative to provide a decorated email address instead of a canonical

    email address, i.e. "Jochem van Dieten <forums@adobe.com>".

    Yes, that's reasonable and a good suggestion.
