Is this at all similar to my e-mail problem (subject - User Names),
where the user name included the @ symbol? Translating the solution
would result in:
read [
scheme: 'http
user: "my\name"
pass: "password"
host: "www.webpage.com"
]
Understanding, as Holger said, some characters should not be in the url,
this may not work, you can at least try :-)
