Can ipop3d be set to strip the domain, or at least be aware of the domain so
that Bob can use either "bob" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?

Unmodified UW imapd/ipop3d has never supported a username of "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". As distributed, the user name space is that of the /etc/passwd file.


It sounds like you were using a third-party modified distribution which had such support, and when you installed a new system you got a different distribution which was closed to the unmodified version.
