Hi,
why can´t I set up an email-address with username/log in "*@xxx.de"? If
I type in this, the buttons are disabled. It only works if I type
something else than the "*".
* is not a valid character in an RFC 2822 address.
The list of valid characters can be found in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822
Didn't see anything of the kind there...
Regardless, just because the RFC says something you want to do isn't
illegal doesn't mean you should automatically do it.
The fact is, the vast majority of mail servers in the world will reject
many email addresses that are *technically* legal.
The real world often doesn't care what the RFCs say.
