So this thread kind of got forgotten about without any action. Here's
where it left off.
current situation:
User signs up and gets account at fp.o and firstname.lastname at fp.o
The problem:
accounts are unique but firstname.lastname is not. This causes
collisions.
Firstname.Lastname may (and currently does) contain characters that
postfix and sendmail freak out about.
Secondary problem:
People think firstname.lastname sounds professional while
accountname at fp.o may not.
I'd like to move forward with removing the firstname.lastname addresses
after sending out a notification. Secondary issues aside, our current
model can't work forever and already causes some issues.
Are there any major detractors?
