Unexpected behavior while using WebDAV with email address in login credentials #211

Brute Force Protection Version 1.2.0 Owncloud 10.12.0 (stable)

When using WebDAV and the Brute Force Protection App is Enabled, there is a different behaviour when I use an email address and password than when I use a username and password:

Using WebDAV with username + password: Everything works as expected.

Using WebDAV with email address + password: First, everything works as expected. But then, after n requests, the brute force protection gets active, and I get a 401 status code.

Is Brute Force Protection identifying the correct WebDAV requests as a brute force attack when I use an email address instead of the username?
