Windows Mobile 7 - Anyone got one?

I've been told that if you use one to connect to ActiveSync/Exchange you cannot have a space in your username.

Does anyone have one who can confirm if this is correct?

Thanks, I did Google but perhaps on the wrong things.

Makes sense as I believe this is an HTC, so whether it's a 7 thing or an HTC thing I don't know, but it seems fking retarded.

Exchange will always setup an alias for your username (usually without a space) - it might be worth asking your admin what your alias is.

The alias is also usually visible in OWA as part of the URL.

I am the admin Our usernames have always from before my time been "Joe Bloggs" and it's never been an issue except the the *nix/linux guys who have to have shortened usernames.

The Exchange aliases are also "Joe Bloggs" format. We've got a right mix of phones syncing already via ActiveSync but this is someone's own Phone 7 mobile (another argument altogether) and is the first time we've had a problem.
