Hi all,

I've installed the cyrus IMAP server for the first time this morning, 
and it's running fine. It looks like it will do everything we want it to 
do, like not having to add unix users to have a mail user, and to be 
able to access mail via POP and IMAP. But there is always a snag when 
you find a software package that is too good to be true! We're in the 
process of changing over to a newer mail server to replace the old 
clunker that does the job now.

While we do this changeover, we are going to change our email addresses 
from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's that dot 
inbetween the first and last name that is going to cause a problem when 
creating the mailboxes, right? From what I can see, you cannot have a 
mailbox called user.adam.fox as the fox will be a subfolder of adam.

Does anyone know of a way to have user names of this format with this 
server? Is there an escape character or something that I can put in 
front of the dot in the mailbox setup, like user.adam\.fox ?

Thanks for any help,

Adam Fox.
