This looks like you are trying to connect with the actual username
user1¡A.DOMAIN.TLD. pg_ident only sets what you are allowed to log in as,
not what it will attempt.

If you are using psql, you are probably doing something like "psql -h
myserver". You need to add the user, so "psql -h myserver -U user1", to
instruct it of which username to actually use for the login.
