What do you mean the user 'a at realm.org' still does not see it? You  
said the user doesn't log in with an email address? If the user logs  
in as 'a', it should be visible. The last comment is correct, the  
administrative overview still loads with the un-mangled username since  
it comes directly from the ActiveSync state table. I will add the  
conversion there as well so it will be displayed as the Horde  
username, not the Auth username.
