Can you not use Email Address as username

I am trying to create accounts through smack. (using wildfire server) My users use their email address as their password

I get a 400 error when trying to insert an email address as a username.

I am in the smack debug ad-hoc message area.

so sending this xml fails:

the request is completed successfully.

strangely, if through the wildfire admin, I create a user with the username pwilcox@objectwareinc.com, i have no problems.

so, my question is: is there a setting somewhere i need on the server?

do I need to escape the @ symbol somehow before sending it?

Thanks

Hi,

you may want to escape “@”, look for example here: http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0106.html#intro

May I ask what you use as xmpp.domain?

Jivesoftware uses “jivesoftware.com” as xmpp.domain and for their email (and of course for their web - but that’'s not really interesting here). So one can use xmpp:user@jivesoftware.com for xmpp and mailto:user@jivesoftware.com for email (and http://www.jivesoftware.com/ to reach the web page).
