CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS MANUAL

We have used a few conventions in the manual in order to help keep explanations clear. Certain generic terms (such as city names) are used to consistently indicate specific things (i.e., host names) throughout the manual. The following table identifies these conventions:

user@domain	user@domain first.lastname@domain jane.doe@software.com jane.doe@sales.software.com	E-mail address using a partial domain name (i.e., host name excluded. We call this host name hiding).
