In the situation with Eudora that I described earlier in this thread,
having a nickname for another nickname means that a change of E-mail
address has to be made only once, in the entry where the nickname is for
that address.

An analogy in Windows would be to have a shortcut to a file and then
another shortcut to the first shortcut, etc, etc.  Any change to the
file would appear for all the shortcuts.  This analogy is not perfect
since you could change the file through any of the shortcuts while
changing an E-mail address in Eudora requires finding the nickname entry
that contains the actual E-mail address.

I like this idea. Too bad there's no addon/extension to do this in SM. :(
