This is not fvwm's fault. What it probably is, is that the settings
for the shell you use on fred.this.that set the xterm's title.
For example, on one machine I use with bash, /etc/bashrc sets
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;[EMAIL PROTECTED]:${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"'
which means that every time I get a new prompt, it resets the xterm's title.
If you are using bash, my first suggestion would be to try setting
PROMPT_COMMAND="" in ~/.bashrc on the machine you ssh to.

Hello,
I am using 2.5.12.
I have my .xinit file start several xterms and ssh into various boxes
when I start X windows. I have the title text set for each window
with the hostname: e.g.
exec xterm -T fred -e ssh -Y fred &
However, the window title text then shows up as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This would not matter except that plain "fred" in the WindowList is
easier to read (among other similar entries) than
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is ther some FVWM setting I must turn off to get FVWM to respect the
entries in my .xinitrc?
I understand that this may not be an FVWM problem. My apologies if
that is so.
