1. I don't see an easy way to update the TracDB from Trac. You'll
probably have to dump the SQLite DB, search/replace the email
addresses, and reload the dump from the modified archive. Maybe
someone has already written a script to do this, check
http://trac-hacks.org
2. Yes, you can use a username (without an email address) to log in on
Trac and associate an email address to each username through the
"Settings" page.
