Newbie question POP

[1/3] from: kpeters::mvinc::net at: 5-Jan-2005 19:24

Hi all ~ my ISP forces me to use my full email address as username because they use Plesk(qmail & virtual users). Apparently, REBOL cannot handle this at all (parsing issues maybe)?

>> read pop://[login--domain]:[password--domain]

connecting to: domain ** Access Error: Cannot connect to domain ** Where: open-proto ** Near: read pop://[login--domain]:[password--domain] Using a more conventional approach (which of course results in a login failure) I get a message I would expect:

>> read pop://login:[password--domain]

connecting to: domain ** User Error: Server error: tcp -ERR Login failed. ** Near: read pop://login:[password--domain]

What am I (and all the others affected) to do? Thanks, Kai
