Auto-add suffix adds a string eg. “beanthere” to the username when it is added to the database. Thus, when TommyC is registered and you filled in an auto-suffix of “beanthere”, Tommy will be TommyC@beanthere. This is useful for when Tommy wants to also sign up at the restaurant next door that uses your WiFi and thus the same RD Database. Just make sure that you don't type an ”@“ or any other special characters into your suffix.
