set-net crash with unusual account name

 [1/2] from: bry::itnisk::com at: 18-Apr-2004 16:25


Hi, my email server seems to have unusual account names, these being in the form of name \ domain instead of [name--domain]. I also need to have set-net have my login.

Hi, Bry, As you might have noticed in a separate thread, REBOL generally correctly parses correctly formed URL's but not all websites seem to conform to the standard. The net-utils parsing rules *sometimes* can be patched to allow the url to be parsed. I have tried the patch for this character and it appears to parse. Watch for line wrap. net-utils/url-parser/user-char: union net-utils/url-parser/user-char make bitset! "\" such that a: read pop://user\domain:[password--smtp--dom] yields user of "user\domain" and password of "password" An alternative is mentioned in the other email that I sent, namely, directly set the user name in the POP protocol. Hope this helps! --Scott Jones
