I'm sorry. It's not listed as being valid, but the "." does work fine. I
made a mistake. Thanks.

Joel, 
The period  "."  is a valid character for userids & aliases in v4.0x,
even though the help files and documentation doesn't show it.  This does
work in the IMail Administrator, User Manager, and Web mail 
interface.
Are you experiencing a "v6.02 only" problem?
