Hoi,
I am twice on the list. The only thing that I have to say in my "defence" is
that I have been posting for a long time now. Appreciating from a numerical
point of view who the top poster is, means that you have to calculate the
amount of time that is involved. I am sure that both Ray and myself will not
be as bad seen in such a light :)
NB I enjoy reading Ray :)
Thanks,
GerardM

Is there any way you could merge the counts for
people with multiple
email addresses? Some way for people to enter addresses into a form to
say they are the same person (and some way for others to review it)?
Sure, that is quite possible. To prevent abuse, such form may require
login and accounts may be restricted, for example, to me and list
moderators (or maybe also stewards or even any user in good standing).
By the way, grouping is performed not by email address, but by "real
name" setting.
I might be missing something but wouldn't confirmation emails be
easier for this than a set of admins and manual approval? Something
like "Thomas Dalton (thomas.dalton at
gmail.com) claims that your
email address should be grouped together with thomas.dalton at
gmail.com Please click here to confirm"
Or is this technically more difficult?
Michael
