   Jamnntpd users file has the 5th field which is used for sending/reading   
   private netmail messages. It may contain multiple names to receive netmail,   
   but the first name is always used for outbound.

   # User configuration file for JamNNTd   
   #   
   # Syntax:   
   #   
   #     []   
   #   
   # "*" means "all groups" and "-" means "no groups".   
   #   
   # Optionally, you can also specify one or more "real" names for the user.   
   # Multiple names are separated by a comma. It is necessary to supply   
   # realnames if you want to use JamNNTPd with netmail as users can only read   
   # netmails to or from one of these names. It is possible to use the "?"   
   # and "*" wildcards in the realnames.   
   #   
   # It it also only possible for a user to cancel messages that were written   
   # by a name that matches their realnames.   
   #   
   # When a user posts a message, the first realname is used as the from name   
   # unless it contains wildcards. If the first realname contains wildcards or   
   # if no realnames are supplied, the from name is taken from the From: header   
   # line of the posted message.   
   #   
   # If you use non-ascii characters in the realname, they should be in the   
   # character set used on the NNTP side, most often iso-8859-1.
