Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

This only occurs if you enter the '@ymail.com' or '@yahoo.com' part to the user name field.
This isn't a bug, you haven't entered the data into the field correctly.
