Here is a little patch that allows for use of the "%" (percent),
or ":" (colon) chars as separators for the [EMAIL PROTECTED] problem
for Netscape Messenger clients in a virtual domain(s) environment.

I have MySQL passwd table entries that contain entries for:
[EMAIL PROTECTED], user2%somedomain.com, user3:somedomain.com and
localuser (with no @defaultdomain) all work properly.
The Netscape Messenger clients enter their e-mail account names with
either a ":" (colon) or "%" (percent) in place of a "@" (at sign)
but, of course, list their real e-mail address in the proper location
so that folks can replay to them, etc.
As delivered, authmysqllib.c would discover the missing "@" and assume
that it was a username for the 'DEFAULT_DOMAIN" (see authmysqlrc).
The patch (above) simply checks for the existence of either alternate
separator, and accepts it as a good username. It works equally well
for POP3 and IMAP (as you would expect). I have *not* even looked
at the authpgsqllib.c instance of this; but the idea is the same...
