email address for login instead of nickname

Hello,

 

I would like people to use their email address for login instead of "nickname".  I know I can change the the caption to "email address", and in the advanced tab I can change the maximum allotted number of characters, but I'm not sure if the "@" symbol is allowed.

 

Also, I don't know how to address the actual "email" field.  I believe the system uses that field for contact and mailings.  I wish I could have the system use the newly captioned "nickname/email address" field for contact, OR, use the email address field for actually login.

 

Basically I want people to use their email address as login and their real name to display all over the system (profile pages, search, etc).  I want to mimic facebook in that sense.

 

Please give me instructions or suggestions.

 

Thank you,

 

Alex Kirkwod
