Hi
I just wanted to create an account here, but the system rejected my email address.
I checked the code and it does not allow "-" in the mail address. (In my case I need it in the domain part, but it should be allowed everywhere.)
Could you please fix that?
Best regards,
Steffen

Re: Mail address validation
This problem has NOT been solved in general.
The validation of the e-mail address in the registration form (https://community.openvpn.net/pwm/public/newuser) is buggy. It doesn't accept a minus (-) beeing a part of the domain name. Same with an underscore (_) in the local part. Both are allowed according to RFC 5322 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-3.4).
Tested a few minutes ago with Chromium and Firefox.
