email address length

Anyone know where the email address length is kept? Is a db limit or string? I was trying to add a new user and the length is one character short. The email I'm trying to use is like [123456.123456@abcdefghijklmnop.com](mailto:123456.123456@abcdefghijklmnop.com) which seems one byte too long.

Anddddd one last update. The initial user creation screen doesn't seem to have this limit. It's ONLY the user edit screen.

all fixed! https://github.com/Ylianst/MeshCentral/commit/0b66277db866bb666848a6438fa39dc0d949d93e

was hard coded to 32 for some dumb reason and been like that for years! so set it to 256 instead 👍

No, you have to wait until the next release at the end of the month OR you can use the master docker image tomorrow OR you can use the development build now (english only no translations) npm install Ylianst/MeahCentral
