[RadiusNT] Calls Table Information

I just became aware of a problem that has to do with RadiusNT username
parsing / storage and it's ramifications on our billing system.

We have Trimname set to 3. That allows users who use their e-mail address
as their username to log in. It also allows them to log in if they have
spaces before or after, or if they are using WinNT and have a domain
defined.

We like that functionality, because it reduces tech support calls. Entry is
permitted even with mistakes.

The problem is, the calls are logged into the calls table with the spaces
and/or domain left intact.

When metered billing takes place, it sees no calls for people who have an
@tm.net or a space in their username.

Is it possible to have RadiusNT store the username as it parses it, not how
the user sends it?
