Allowed username characters?

How do I change the allowed list of characters in the username position of user email addresses? Specifically, I’d like to allow usernames or forwarders that include the = character.

Thread 'problem with name of mailboxes with special characters'

Oct 19, 2021

I made a migration from cPanel to Directadmin, everything working perfectly, except this issue of mailboxes with special characters.

mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:UTF-8

I know I must configure the mail directory to support UTF-8, but where do I configure this? does anyone have the step by step?

the error only occurs in mailboxes that have special characters in the name.
