Tom, dia duit!
On 20/03/2000 you may or may not have meant to post the following to TBUDL:
S>> Alias means, "otherwise called or known as", but not "also". Alias is from
S>> the Latin root *alius* which means *other*! The Old English words *aell* &
S>> *sw�* create *aellsw�*, or rather all+so; *also* is rather from the Old
S>> Frisian word *alsa*, meaning *thus*.
> Thomas is correct I believe. An alias is an"other" name for the same
> thing. It is not the primary name of the thing. Hence the
> definition, "other." Pretty much anything @fancy.org aliases to one

That was my definition, not Thomas's! Look at the quotes: S> for Simon ;)
RFC822 is very clear as to what it is. Anyone in any doubt should have a good
read: http://freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/822/24.htm
Sl�n anois,
Simon
