Is there any potential breakage to allow adduser --force-badname to create accounts with @ in user names?
The only thing that immediately comes to mind is that of a MTA that has to deliver mail for this user. For example, when cron runs a job and needs to send the output to the owner of the cronjob, there will be some ambiguity as to whether the part after the @ is part of the username or in fact a domain name. This is especially true when setting MAILTO in a crontab. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
