The name emailusern, where n is a number, is reserved and cannot be used as one of your user names.

Description

This command adds e-mail recipients to the e-mail event and inventory notification facility. You can add up to twelve recipients, one recipient at a time. When an e-mail user is added, if a user name is not specified, a default name is allocated by the system. This default name has the form of emailuser1, emailuser2, and so on. E-mail notification starts when you process the startemail command.

Note: Before the usertype parameter can be set to support, the -warning and -info flags must be set to off.
