{{Quickfixn}} Username in Acceptor/OnLogon

[Grant Birchmeier]

Whatever you want to do, you want to do it in FromAdmin().

The OnLogon() function doesn't give you access to the incoming message.

(If there is a problem with the logon message such that a logon will not
occur, I'm 85% sure that FromAdmin won't even be called.)
