A surprisingly large number of students I have dealt with in Korea apparently do not understand the purpose of the “Sender” line in an email. Thus they don’t enter their names in the email system, but rather input all kinds of other things: brief quotes in Korean from books they like, or random English words like “nicelips”, or “misty”, or “lovely”, or “nicegirl”. Okay, a majority of them also have the good graces to begin their email with, “Hi teacher, this is ________,” at this point, inserting some randomly-determined romanized form of their names. But still, I imagine it would be frustrating to have to deal with mass amounts of email from younger people — say, on a mailing list — when the name on the Subject Line and the name within the email differs — and when the cutesy content in the Subject Line changes regularly in the course of weeks or months.
