   I had asked about this in the not-so-distant past, also. Tin, of all clients,   
   had a display issue with this. But we had done some research and found that it   
   was Tin that was at fault. So we reported our findings and it was addressed.

   I've also removed them in my modded version, but if you "add an option or   
   something", please let me know as I would be interested in doing the same!   
      
   I had figured that if I can't read/write (moreso write, because the mail base   
   can indeed be read) FTN netmail via NNTP, there was really no need for the   
   comments, that were already messing up some other display options I had set in   
   my SmartTemplates add-on.   
      
   If I was an actual license holder for SmartTemplates, I probably could just   
   report the issue there and get it fixed as it's most likely another case where   
   those comments are not being fully ignored. That may still be in the cards,   
   too.

   Tin and Slrn also just display the name now, as they should. I think when we   
   went through all of this the RFC's stated that if you weren't going to use   
   those comments, to ignore them. It seems HotdogEd doesn't ignore them fully   
   (which was the same issue that Tin had before we contacted the maintainer).
