Hi, Sorry for this late reply. I only discovered / subscribed to this list today and noticed this thread in the January archives.
My ISP also gave me a login name with a '@' in the it, and claimed that he could not avoid it. The OP may benefit from the .netrc approach: it's a good workaround. Just escape the '@' in the .netrc file, like: machine bla.bla.bla login he...@tail password whatever Works like a charm, Guido -- Communicate! It can't make things any worse. http://vanhoecke.org ... and go2 places! _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
