Yes, when fully functional, I believe that you or your users will substitute the symbol * in place of the @ symbol. The server which you are calling into must be able to handle this or some such protocol. Netscape's browser has a similiar problem with vhost names and others as well. Check with the tech support for that other server to see what their workaround is for ws-ftp and others.
