My adduser.message is a text that has an e-mail address: support@wananchi.com When I don't escape the @, I get adduser sending the message without the suffix part of the e-mail. If I escape it, my users get the e-mail in there as support\@wananchi.com ;-) I have tried to put in adduser.conf: CONTACT = "support@wananchi.com" and then refer to this in adduser.message as $CONTACT but this still doesn't work. What am I missing??
