If you have a network site and create a user where the username is an
email address (myemail at example.com) and your email address is different
(otheremail at differentdomain.com) you cannot add a user to the network
site. Under the Add Existing User section it will find the user you're
trying to add and autofill it, but when you try to actually add it, it
tells you it's not a valid user.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a network site
- Add a new user where their username is one email address and the email
address is a different one
- Add a new network site under your main one
- Try to add your user to that newly created main one
I ran into this issue because I created some users initially using their
email address as a username, and then their email address changed. We
can't change username so the only thing I could do was update their email
on their account which I did. Then this bug popped up.
