Hmm, actually, there seems to be an issue.

If you have a username xxx.yyy, it won't add.

I think the problem is that the server API does a check to make sure the email is valid and . is not considered a value character. If the username is all one word, it works.

I will have a look at it this evening.

Let me know if it uses RegEx and you need a regular expression for checking e-mail addresses, I've become a pro at that now :p

Well Ayana did most of the backend :). However, it might be my user interface.

Taki, you want to setup a forwarder right ?

I set up as follows:

username: abcd
password:
forward: xxx.yyy@test.com

and it worked

In addition,

username: abcd.def
password:
forward: xxx.yyy@test.com

also works

Hmm,

username: aaa.bbb
password: pass
forward:

also works :). I wonder if Ayana was doing some mods.

Ok, aaa.bbb works, however lairiodd3 (from this account) doesn't.

This is wierd.

You aren't supposed to (don't need to) supply a password if you only need a forward relay.

Can you post the exact settings for the 3 fields ( xxxxx for the password would be OK). I can seem to trigger a problem with the email mailbox, but not with the bouncer.

Ok, we have tracked down the issue. The problem was using a password longer than 6 characters was causing the server connection to fail. We have fixed it so that any length password will work. Though, it shouldn't affect the forwarder.
