They are 2 separate fields. The username just has to be in an email format. Like you, I have several accounts for different dev environments and customer environments, all with the same email address, but different user names. The trick is to change your username to something OTHER than your email address whenever you sign up so that you can sign up again with that email. You could have things like: bob.production@example.com bob.testinstance@example.com bob.customer1@example.com bob.customer2@example.com Al 4 of those user records can have the same email address on them.
