Unfortunately when I installed it I wiped out the config file, so now it doesn't work at all. MORE unfortunately, I realized the previous 2.0 version was, in fact, working just fine with the -a syntax when I looked at the logs and saw that others were using it successfully. This user just happened not to have her email address configured in her preferences. And as an aside, I found the bit about my usernames being "too inconsistent" to be unnecessarily catty and that it didn't add to the discussion at all. My usernames work perfectly well for my use, which is a multi-domain mail server.
