.htpasswd question

[Bear]

Hi all,

I have a very strange problem. Those users who are using email address as their username always said they can't access the site. I tired their username, I also need to enter their username and password a few times in order to get pass.

Does anyone know what's the possible reason for this problem?

You failed to supply the web server and version, aswell
as the operating system.

Unices LOVE passwords with special characters, the problem
is likely in the config if you're running a Unix.

I notice that you did not say it wasn't working at all, which
also suggests that your config is wrong. Perhaps you are
giving conflicting directives without an override?

Thanks a lot.
