</span>Please check the python syntax of that statement. This is what I am getting:<br>
<br>
>>> params = { "givenname":"Hans", "surname":"Wurst", "domain":"fleischer" }<br>
>>> print "'%(givenname)s'[0:1]%(surname)s@%(domain)s" % params<br>
'Hans'[0:1]Wurst@fleischer<br>
<br>
And this is probably not how you want your email addresses to look like.<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>
