i've never had problems exchanging mail with people with dotted names.
if you're trying to rewrite a specific address in /mail/lib/rewrite and need
to match a literal . with the regular expression, just escape it with \
	okamoto\.0@earth\.cias\.osakafu-u\.ac\.jp

How I can change rewrite rule to receive/send from/to a user
who has dot character in his name, say
okamoto.0@earth.cias.osakafu-u.ac.jp?
