BOZO stands for "Beheer en Ondersteuning Zuid Oost", in English "Management
and Support South East". ("Management" here being "computer systems
management" (think "sysadmin"), and "Support" being "Customer Support".)
BTW, that long address it is not my e-mail address (the real address is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) but the name under which I am listed in M$
Outlook's address book.

I know it is; that is why I was not exactly filled with joy when the
address was changed after my latest transfer. But then, the people at EMDS
(E-mail and Directory Services) were only following official guidelines for
creating those addresses.
And no, it is not irritating enough to ask for yet another transfer just to
get "BOZO" out of my e-mail address. Four transfers within 12 months is
more than enough. :-)
