Silently Truncating the Email Address Username

$

Hi,

You can't imagine the frustration that silently truncating the email/username causes.

The user registers an email address, which is silently (without notification) truncated for use as the username during login. The user then attempts to login with the full address and the registration password. Many error messages about the password not matching the username ensue.

Relenting and resetting the password reveals the problem, your password and username were as registered but the system silently and without notification decided to change your username without notification or advice.

Your username, in case you've forgotten: thethingsnetwork.org@Hamish.Ma

The less said about inconsistency between forum. and www. thethingnetwork the better.

I'm sorry my first post should be so full of woe, but I'm not going to suffer this problem again, and only a small percentage of new registrants will, but some really should fix this, incase one's first experience with thethingsnetwork should be so stupidly painful.
