is there any way to restrict new users to a certain email adress, say for example only people with an email adress ending with @.com could join

The closest I can offer: Switch on the user submission queue
Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['usersubmission']  = 0; // 1 = new users must be approved
 

Then add the allowed domain to
Text Formatted Code
// When user submission is activated, allow users from these domains to
// register without having to go through the submission queue.
$_CONF['allow_domains'] = ''; // e.g. 'mycompany.com,myothercompany.com'
 

This would still allow anyone to sign up, but they won't be able to log in until being approved by the admin (just like stories that have to be approved).

bye, Dirk
