We have a sendmail server running for a few hundred domains.  We need to
have users login using user@host.com .  I can make usernames in this
format if I edit the password file directly.  The problem I run into is
that usernames can only be 17 chars.  I ran into this url

http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=3D60800+0+archive/2001/freeb=
s
d-isp/20010114.freebsd-isp

I did changes the values that it talked about, but now how can we have
longer than 17 char usernames?

I recompiled the kernel, but How do I get this into effect.  Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
