e-mail address 16-character limit?
Is there any way around the 15-character limit for e-mail addresses?
My domain name has 10 characters; my usual online nickname has 7. So here I must severely truncate my name.
How come? Or, more usefully, is there some way around the limit? Thanks.

What limit? Where? As the FAQ says, please be specific when you’re asking for help.

I use a 4.0 TXP with a 26 characters email adress without a fuss. Something weird seems to happen on your end (I doubt some kind of limit was added in 4.01~4.03).

To additionally confirm: there wasn’t and isn’t any imposed or even suggested user email address character limit, so please elaborate on what happened.

Mea culpa — I think I posted in the wrong forum. That question belongs in the Textdrive forum, as that was where I was setting up the e-mail address, and where I got the error message I quoted.
Very sorry to have been annoying! Plead holiday madness.

My 26 character email adress is hosted on TXD too.
