There username becomes there email address, which I find is a really annoying feature of the cobalt server. Gerrr.

of course, you can setup email aliases to "take care" of that problem, but I agree, I dont like the way the user/email/ftp config works.

Does anyone know the url for the Raq manual?

I use to have it but lost it. It do believe it's in pdf format

one thing to remember if you use the name "info" and you have multiple domains you will not be able to add another user named "info"
the workaround would be to put something like
wht.info (for a website like webhostingtalk.com) I use a 3 letter code before to help seperate
now you can then make a alias for that user and then have multiple dominas that will have a email such as info@domain.com

when your user sets up ther email rememer you would use the wht.info as the user name
alias's are not recognized as a user name ;)
sorry if this sounds very basic but figured would include it in the thread as I am sure I have seen this asked elsewhere.
