Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the connection-string parser that splits at the first @, then reproduce an SFTP login with an email-address username; done means the username is parsed correctly and authentication succeeds.

Description

I am attempting to connect to an SFTP server for which the username is an email address. I can't seem to be able to do this as it splits the connection string at the first occurence of @. Are there any workarounds?
