Title: Change to POP User Name doesn't seem to "stick"
Post by: Michael Smith on November 18, 2003, 05:26:00 PM

Greetings ... my domain host just notified me that they're revising their email system and my POP login is now foo@bar.com instead of simply foo.  Fine, I went to Server Manager, Email Retrieval and changed "foo" to "foo@bar.com" in the POP User Name.

After saving, the Server Manager reported the new setting had been saved BUT if I go back into Server Manager, it still shows "foo", not "foo@bar.com".   Is this is a real problem or is  it a display bug?

Oops, forgot to mention that the server in question is running 5.6UE with all updates.

did you try to change your username to "foofoo".
if that doesn't seem to work, try to reload the email-page in server-manager.
and try to hit or >CTRL> or while reloading the page in the browser.

cheers klaus

Nope, didn't work.  I've tried enclosing the login in quotes and escaping the @ with a \; it still reverts to just plain "foo".  This is going to be a real problem!  I would prefer a solution that can be implemented in the server manager, as I'm sure I'm not the only person to whom this has happened or will happen.
