> Priority: 5 - medium  
> Created By: Volker Voßkämper  
> Assigned to: Admins Group  
> Summary: #371 - Email address format for new addresses should be lowercase  
> In application preferences is an option for selecting the format for the email address of new accounts.  
> My preffered format ist [firstname.lastname@domain.com](mailto:firstname.lastname@domain.com) but the generated email is with first letters in uppercase.  
> No problem with this for others if they like it but it would be nice if a lowercase default is selectable too.

> Dear EGroupware user,

thanks for reporting feature requests to [egroupware.org](http://egroupware.org).

With the new release of EGroupware 1.8.001 we implemented many new features. So we kindly ask you to recheck your feature request against the new version. If it is still valid, please reopen it with the current version 1.8.001.

If you do not respond within the next 14 days, we assume the request is no longer necessary and it will be closed automatically.

Thanks for your understanding

## Ralf Becker Stylite GmbH

Hi,  
we reset all priority to 5, which is the new initial state of tracker items. The priority can now only be changed by Tracker admins or the assigned developer. This allows the developers to manage their work with the priorities. Users can vote to articulate their priorities.  
Thanks for your understanding  
Ralf
