        On top of that, I suggest to clearly describe the requirement to quote any "leading" dot(s) that are *not* supposed to be converted to an '@' character. Like in wilfried\.woeber.univie.ac.at !
and add a warning that, at least with versions of BIND before 4.9.3 and perhaps some of the usual tools, this does not always work as expected, so you better avoid having a dot in the username part if possible. Berthold Paffrath
