We've justed started using JAMES for some POP3 accounts and ran into something of a 
problem.  If a username has a '.' in it, it creates nested directories for the user 
mailboxes.  I'm not quite sure why it would do this.  Was '.' selected as the 
delimiter for when someday we support nested folders (from IMAP4 or other uses)?  If 
so, I think File.separatorChar or '|' or '/' some other less useable character might 
be better.

Once more, using '.' in the username seems to break the account after email is 
delivered.  I'm guessing the conversion of '.' to File.separator is not consistent 
across JAMES.  I commented out the replace('.', File.separatorChar) in 
UsersRepository.getChildDestination, and everything is working fine so far.  Unless 
there's reason not to, I'd like to commit the change as I've heard others mention this 
problem with the '.'s.
