Please always use a monospace font and less than 80 chars in the line
in your mailer, otherwise your message will be screwed up as shown at:

Use:

  Style "XTerm" NoIconTitle

or:

  Style "*" NoIconTitle

Beware when using this style option, you may end up with no icon window
(similarly to using NoIcon) if icon pixmaps are not configured or not
compilled-in or misconfigured.

The name used in the icon is the one your application has supplied, you
should change the name (sometimes called "icon name") of the application:

  xterm -n "My Name"

Note, this is sometimes not the same as a title name (the one you see in
a window title), try: xterm -n "My Name" -T "My Title"

Mikhael.
