Hi Alex,

yes, this is used in the connection string as a delimiter between the password 
and host. And because of compatibility reasons i see unfortunately no easy 
way to change this. May i ask why do you need to use a '@' in the password? 

Other chars that have a special meaning in the connection string are ':' 
and '/', this should also be avoided.

Cheers,

Henning
