I remember this limitation since the IMail 3.x days. One work around was to
create a 3 character user name, then change it in the registry to 2 characters.

Why was this limitation ever created in the first
place? Is there some RFC somewhere that specifies a minimum of three
characters? What was the original thinking behind this? Has Ipswitch
fixed this in the newer versions?

I believe the trick was to create
2-char alias.

[IMail Forum] 2 Char Email Addres...?
In
using ver 8.22
I
have a customer who wants a 2 char email address... the interface says it
must
be three, but I think I remember there was some way around this, perhaps a
registry trick... I figured I would check with the list before I
experiment...
