Sometime recently Network Solutions seems to have stopped accepting "+" as a valid character in an e-mail address. Yes, I did open a ticket via their customer service people, and was given the reply that I needed to use another e-mail address. Per their web form, the only acceptable addresses are [a-zA-Z-_.][email protected][a-zA-Z-_.]+ (no, they don't put it in a regex, but I did for clarity). Evidence suggests some Network Solutions people read this list, but are unlikely to reply to queries such as mine. That's fine, but if one of you could suggest to the people in the right place that there are many valid e-mail addresses not in that form it would be great. In particular I'm trying to use [email protected], which I have used for years. Note to all, they also sent out a recent note that ICANN requires valid contact info for a domain, and if you don't have it they can "unregister" your domain. Well, their web form flags my e-mail as "invalid", even though it works just fine (and it's the address they used to send me the notice). If you use a e-mail that doesn't match the regex above you might want to complain, or change it, or both. A private e-mail from someone at netsol will yeild the ticket number I opened with standard customer service. -- Leo Bicknell - [email protected] - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/ Read TMBG List - [email protected], www.tmbg.org Attachment:
