I discovered this problem when I implemented IMAIL at site 2. Tech Support
tried top help me out with this one but I kind of felt like I was on my own.
If you put dots in the TLD "newdomain.com" then there aother things you will
have trouble with later (ask for more detail if you want it). I don't know
if they fixed this in the web interface to keep you from doing this or if it
is just another application area where it can not handle dots in the file
name or TLD name. I would just find a standard way of naming TLD's without
dots or spaces and stick to that. The spaces issue is documented, but I am
not sure if the dots issue is documented yet. When I found the bug (and
workaround) I asked Ipswitch for a t-shirt or hat, but am still waiting!
