First. You accidentally replied to me personally and not to the list. I
did this too last week before I remembered that Evolution, if that's
what you are using, has a 'reply to list' command. Right-click in the
message for a menu with lots of different commands. Reply to list is
among them.

I'm not using Ubuntu right now and can't check if this is as it should
be or not. There should be a bashrc (no preceding dot) somewhere in /etc
(sorry I don't remember which subdirectory) that you can copy to your
home directory and rename .bashrc and add any changes to.

cp /etc/where-ever-it-is/bashrc ~/.bashrc (the ~ sign is short for your
home directory)
Note that the cp (copy) command also can change the name of a file.

Someone else can probably give you better help.

Cheers,
	Bo
