It would be nice if we change the information that appears when we have a invalid hostname. I don't know however, where the espresso's translation files are.

Thanks, patch applied. The hostname errors are unfortunately not translated at present; I've changed the error string to account for your patch, though.

Changed in espresso:
assignee:	nobody → kamion
