[Mailman-Users] How is the subscriber's name used?

[Tom Browder]

I think I have a working mailing list, and I just "mass" subscribed a
dozen of my friends to take a spin.  When I subscribed them I put
their real names in the mass subscription list like this:

blitz12345 at gmailcom (Real Name)

The Real Name shows on the admin's subscriber list, but not in the
subscribers list available to the subscribers.  Two questions:

1.  What is the Real Name used for?
2.  Can it be shown on the public subscribers list?

Thanks,

-Tom
