I'm pretty sure that all the vpopmail functions validate user names as well as domain names.
Please see the two functions: is_domain_valid ( char *domainname ) is_username_valid( char *username) The both return error codes if not valid. [root@newdevel bin]# ./vadduser "kbo @ken.com" test user invalid kbo Error: Illegal username In pop conversations: telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> user postmaster NOTE: extra space at the end of postmaster +OK pass foober user invalid postmaster -ERR authorization failed When you say you received a mesage for with a space after the user name. Could you be more specific in how it was received and all the programs that handled the email?
