(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.) I don't use pop3 myself, so I can't really test this. I tried looking in the changelog to see whethers anything has changed in this area, and I can't see anything in particular... but these days, we recommend the system-wide movemail implementation, which may or may not have this limitation. Are you still seeing this issue in more recent Emacs versions? Having an "@" in a user name is quote common, so it's odd that we haven't seen more bug reports about this if it's still an issue. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
