SV: [IMail Forum] Fw: Having USERID of 2 characters

[F.Aunel - AW]

To me it appears as a ’erronius’ limitation brought on Imail by the Web interface people. I’m using the the “Imail database” and have move my account from an other mail-server system (MailMax) using scripts.   If you use the commandline to create/modify and handle you users – you’ll have no proble with Imail and 2 characters in the Userid or Alias – you can use (try) the following:   ��������������������� Adduser.exe –h mydomain.com –u xx –p secret +web +active +info   It will create – without ANY error – an account for [EMAIL PROTECTED]   If you logon to view mail – it’ll work If you send/receive mail – it’ll work   Any operation – not going true some validation routine – will work and I have this feeling that deep down in Imail 2 character (or even 1) is no problem.   Any good Idears ???   Flemming � �   -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:IMail_Forum-owner@list.ipswitch.com] P� vegne af WHTV - Internet Tech.

Aunel Sent: September 18, 2002 2:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] Fw: Having USERID of 2 characters I'm looking for a way to have "Imail webinterface" and "Imail Administrator" accept userid or alias of 2 characters length.   We are currently having user with email address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] - As we are migrating to Imail we need it to accept the 2 characters.   If we use the commandline interface (scripts) to create the account there are no problems. Commandline will accept 2 characters (even 1) as the userid.   Question:             1. Have anyone circumventet this limitation             2. Does ANYONE see any reason for this limitation ..   regards Flemming Aunel
