No, *that* would be backwards. In installations that are using this feature, the vast majority of the users are going to be local ones. And the global users will be the presumably-more-sophisticated admins. Putting the onus of the '@' decoration on the local users instead of the global ones is exactly the wrong way to go. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
