As far as I know this variable is only used internally in
the mail packages of emacs. Its to set the full name which goes out in
the From: field, as hopefully you can see in the headers of this mail
message! JDE uses it under the logic that a) its likely to be set to
the full name of the user, who is likely to want his name on the code
and that b) if they dont its value is only evalutated virtue of a
template so its pretty simple to stop it doing this if you dont want
it to.
To set it you can either do what I do which is stuff this in
your .emacs:-
(setq user-full-name "Phillip Lord")
or alternatively if you are into customise (which I am, but this
customisation pre-dates customise in my case) do
Help -> Browse Customisation Groups
Then expand Applications, Mail, User Full Name. Click on option and
then show next to User Full Name. Fill the value in, then state, save
for future sessions.
Takes longer to type than it does to do!
