Wow. It worked :O !!! Thank you!!!!!
ps.: Thank you again :) !! If you have a percent sign in PASSWORD then it will be interpreted as an escape character that is to be followed by a two-digit hexadecimal number that encodes one character (i.e. the next two characters have to be members of the set [0-9a-fA-F]): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding Try to encode all special characters in PASSWORD according to RFC 3986. For example, if PASSWORD is ":secret%text@" then the encoded version is "%3Asecret%25text%40". If you have the liburi-perl package installed then you can use perl to do the conversion of all special characters (see "man URI::Escape"): $ perl -e 'use URI::Escape; $encoded = uri_escape(":secret%text@"); print "$encoded\n";' %3Asecret%25text%40
