You can hard code it into GMail::NoAuth::Join.pm until you get an answer. In the check_user sub (around line 221) add an if statement something like this:

In Reply To:
if ($cgi->{username} !~ /^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/) {
$GMail::Template::TAGS{bad_username} = 1;
return $self->error('JOINERR_LOGIN_FMT', 'WARN', $cgi->{username});
}
right above the first if statement around line 240. That regex might need a little work, I am not very good with them yet. You might want to edit the template language for JOINERR_LOGIN_FMT to match the error a little better also. Make a back-up of the module before you make changes!

Regards,
Charlie
