The RFC's are _very_ permissive about user part into email address, I thing
you can even use space or @ inside like in
"a sp at ced address"@yourdomain.com :-)

But  MUA, MTA, Filter agent, policy agent and storage system include some
restrictions. Yours and them of your contacts !
Then to avoid any problem limit the character to usual one. I will never use
characters other than: alpha-numeric, . (dot), - (minus), _ (underscore).

"=" is not dangerous for me, but I would never use it :-)


2 - email with "From" different from the kolab domain is returning:

Yes this is an _original_ kolab feature ! (I dont like it and thing we
should be able to disable it).
When you authenticate with your SMTP (and you have no choice when you are
outside of your local network),
kolab compare your credential and the FROM of any email you send.



Any hints?
