Due to the way Windows operates, some usernames are not permitted in SmarterMail. These are:
- con
- aux
- com1
- com2
- com3
- com4
- lpt1
- lpt2
- lpt3
- prn
- nul
Note that this limitation also applies to usernames with a period following the reserved word, such as: nul.name@YourHostedDomainName.com.
So, for example, these usernames will fail to be created:
- nul@YourHostedDomainName.com
- nul.name@YourHostedDomainName.com
These will be created successfully:
- nul-name@YourHostedDomainName.com
- nulname@YourHostedDomainName.com
