Description

As in this the user entered probably the email address instead of the username and therefore the authentication wont work.

Add a check if the user entered an email address or a username and show a message box with an error.

Check all accounts if the email or the username must be used and handle it.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the account creation and editing flow to understand how the username field is handled. Determine how authentication is attempted for different Git services. Add a validation check that identifies if the input is an email address (contains '@') and show an error message box. Review existing account related code and tests for integration points.
