Ok, I implemented minimum required support to get it working with email address as username. It is enough to log in and navigate in the mailbox. It surely have some limitations (I did not check email sending) but now perfectly suit my needs (simple and self contained webmail to consult and delete emails).
Emmanuel. ---------- email_as_login.patch: Description: add basic support to use email address as username/login Username:backenPID was limited to 32 bytes. Bump to 64 to be usable with email address. @ was used unconditionally as a delimiter to split the request int the argv array. As many proxy/reverse-proxy rewrite %40 as @, do not split on @ if we are processing the username (second field).
