Some will allow exactly what Alternative Maxwell is doing ( like altopia) others will only allow froggery if it's obvious, i.e. the frogger can use the name maxwell but if the associated addie was Max...@i.am.a.dumb.fjuk.com, you couldn't use, for instance, Max...@i.am.a.dumb.fjuk.con or something else so similar it isn't immediatly^([sic]) obvious to a casual glance.
