This website is deprecated, and remains online only for historic access to old issues and docs for historic versions of Virtualmin. It has been unmaintained for several years, and should not be relied on for up-to-date information. Please visit www.virtualmin.com instead.
You can toggle that behavior in System Settings -> Virtualmin Configuration -> Defaults for new domains : Include domain name in usernames.
This setting only applies to new domains though; existing user accounts need to be deleted and re-created for the modification to apply.
