SMTP eMail trouble when lastname is also domain name

Hi folks,

one of our users has trouble receiving internet mail. His email address in something like “john.acme@acme.com” Where “acme” is his lastname but also “acme” is the name ouf our notes domain (the user is the owner of the company :slight_smile: ). Unfortunately the smtp router deletes the part “.acme” and leaves only “john@acme.com”, which is a email-address that exists multiple times so the router can’t deliver the mail.

His internet address in the person’s document is “john.acme@acme.com”.

Does anybody know a way to tell the router that “acme” is the lastname and not the domain name?

Yours

Detlef
