# user
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
local user = address.user
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returns the mailbox portion of the address. For example, if the address is
|
|
`"first.last@example.com"`, `address.user` will evaluate as `"first.last"`.
|
|
|
|
See also [address.domain](domain.md).

## Quoted Local Part
|
|
|

|
|
Prior releases of KumoMTA had inconsistent behavior around handling envelope
|
|
addresses whose local part was a quoted string. The behavior has been improved,
|
|
and this `user` field will now return the *normalized local part* from the address.
|
|
|
|
Normalization removes any quoting and quotes from the local part.
|
|
|
|
Some examples of how this works are shown in the table below:
|
|
|
|
|Address|Normalized Local Part|
|
|
|-------|---------------------|
|
|
|`foo@example.com`|`foo`|
|
|
|`"foo"@example.com`|`foo`|
|
|
|`"f\oo"@example.com`|`foo`|
|
|
|`"info@"@example.com`|`info@`|
