No, that's not quite what I'm saying. I don't want to allow the user to have
an email that matches their LOGIN, because all our scripts, statements, etc
"create" a mail account for the LOGIN already. So OPTI should not allow
"john" to be added to the services screen of "john"'s account, that would be
redundant.
