Description

Unable to register.

https://community.openvpn.net/pwm/public/newuser

"Email Address has invalid characters"

My e-mail has a plus sign (.) in the localpart. It's fully RFC 5322 compliant, against modern addresses with a dot (.) in the localpart.

Any update here?

I believe this is now fixed. I was able to register with an email that was in "user+foobar@…" format. I also noticed that our own email provider did not let such emails through. But that is unrelated to this Pwm issue. I suppose Google or some other email providers are more relaxed/can handle "+" signs.

Would somebody care to test if registration now works ok?

This was the only account where I could not use the + sign.

Working here now,
Thanks.

I checked + and _ and -, the 3 chars i know were failing (tested yesterday). I confirm this is solved.
