Yeah, great! -- that is, would be, if it would work.
I wrote:

\definemarking		[myname]
\setupheadertexts	[][{\getmarking[myname][all]}]
\def\Name#1{{\marking[myname]{#1}\bf #1}}
\def\Nick#1{{\it (#1)}}
\def\Geburt#1{* #1}
\def\Email#1{#1}
\def\Strasse#1{#1}
\def\Ort#1{#1}
\def\Telefon#1{#1}

\starttabulate[|w(30mm)i0j0k0|w(30mm)i0j0k0|w(18mm)i0j0k0|]
\HL
\NC\Name{Alt, Stefan}\NC\Email{alt.stefan@to.de}\NC\Nick{Old Man}\NC\NR
\NC\Strasse{Straße 77}\NC\Ort{D-77777 Town}\NC\Telefon{+49-7777-7777}\NC\NR\HL
% long list of address lines
\stoptabulate

But \getmarking shows nothing.
In the log I get only
"system         : mark myname defined [myname]"
and no further mentioning of "myname"

Further let's make the "phone book header" better: How can I get the first n 
characters of a text? (I guess I'd find such in the TeXbook, but perhaps 
there is a ConTeXty way?)

Grüßlis vom Hraban!
