Isn't the SID still the Social Security Number of the Windows world? I know Exchange/Outlook, circa 2003 and earlier, had some kind of failure mode if you changed the username and someone within the org had sent them email before. I forget the details. Since we now have a "never change the username" policy, I don't know if the issue still exists, either. The username also shows up all over the registry, and I know older versions of Windows (XP? Definitely 2000.) did not use variables everywhere they should. I don't know if that's been improved or not, for the same reason. -- Ben
