Thanks, Peter. It didn't work. I am guessing it depends in any way on the server this will work or won't work, doesn't it? Have you tried an http URL passing username and password with any public server I could try with? I've used this syntax with ftp sites, but never with http servers. I've tried here with several of the servers I've available and none of them seems to accept this syntax.
