# User Name Field Bug

 * I think I found out a major bug: if you enter an email in the “user_name” field,
   the confirmation mail will not be sent. I guess there is a parsing problem or
   something due to the @ sign or the dot. Could you investigate on it? I mean, 
   a possible solution would be to add a check for special characters in the field,
   but as far as I know you don’t support regex check yet, correct?

 * Hello [@wanderfra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wanderfra/),
 * We could reproduce the issue on your particular site, we do get emails on domains
   other than gmail. However, the issue is not reproduced on our test environment.
   If possible, can you please deactivate other plugins, with only user registration
   active and see if the issue still arises? If yes, we will have a look further
   at the issue. Also, if you could find the other plugin causing the issue, please
   notify us. We will see if we can do something on this.
 * Regards,
    WPEverest Support
