I don't see the full email address printed anywhere on the reports - I do see the email domain (e.g. @googlemail.com, @hotmail.com etc.) but not the full email address.

What report gives the full email address (send me a private conversation if you'd prefer not to post it here)

Fishfinger,

Did you ever have a user account where your username *was* your email address?  The report I believe you are talking about it the UsersLoginFailedReport which lists the UserName that was attempted along with the failure count.  If someone chooses to use their email address for their username, or if they try to log in with their email address instead of their username, then it is logged.

I will look into disabling this particular report.

Thanks,
David L. Penton
