Question

Short user name vs long

For work, there are a lot of sites that use my Windows domain login credentials. I don't keep separate entries for these, I just have one for the domain account and add additional websites for the rest. The problem is that some of the sites use the short username (carl.peabody) and others use the full email address (mailto:carl.peabody@timetravel.com). I keep the long form in the 1Password login entry, but it is annoying when the site requires the short form. I often can't remember which version the site is using, so there is often some trial and error.

Is there a good way to handle this so that 1Password autofills the correct user name for each site?

Maybe there is a way to have multiple logins linked to the same password?

Hey @Peabody, I recommend creating a separate login with the carl.peabody username and then add the URL's for the websites that require that username to the login. If you put everything into one login, filling may not work as expected on your sites.
