[4.6.0] FTP log-in not smart enough?

Hello.

A while ago my ISP switched to "fully-qualified"
user names, i.e. our user names for log-in are the
full e-mail addresses.

This does not work with mc's FTP log-in, I assume
because the @ is searched forward instead of
backward.

E.g. for FTP with mc I need to log in as
ohei at snafu.de:password at whatever.snafu.de

This does currently not work with mc 4.6.0.

The @ used to separate the user/pw part from
the host part should be searched reversely
beginning from the end of the string.

Thanks for reading through this mail.

With kind regards,
Oliver Heidelbach
