It will accept an initial, such as "Vendala T." or "B. Allen." Or maybe she has a family surname you could use?

She is from a country where people tend to go by a single name, and her one-word name is also her e-mail user name. When I try to add her, I get the error message "Please specify the FULL name." But this *is* her full name. Is there something in the configuration settings that I can change to deal with this situation? If so, I'm not finding it. I certainly don't want to have to make up a name for her just to appease Listserv, and I don't want to subscribe her as "Anonymous," because she isn't. Thanks if you can help. Jane
