I think you misunderstood my comments above.  $USERNAME_EXTENSION is the
entire string that gets tacked onto your username.  For instance, if I'm
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and I set $USERNAME_EXTENSION to "-nmh", my email
will be signed "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".

Putting "masquerade: username_extension" in mts.conf just enables that
behavior.  

All this is made clear in the new versions of the mh-tailor and post man
pages.
