I need advice on setting the pop_host variable.

I have fetchmail working and successfully downloading email, but for
complex reasons of personal taste, I want to be able to use the G command.

The URL of the server is pop.everyone.com
My email address is [email protected]
When using fetchmail I use the fully qualified email address as my userID
I know my password for sure because it is passed the fetchmail command,
and that works.

I have tried 
:set pop_host="pop://[email protected]@pop.everyone.com"
and then uppercase G command.

I get a request for my password, which I answer (proves that Pop support
is compiled into my particular Mutt)
Some progress reports ending in PASS: Authorization failed.

I have also tried inserting the password into set_host per the User Manual,
but this also fails.

I think Mutt may be confused by the TWO @s in the string. But that is 
puzzling because it seems to be collecting to a pop server which asks for
a password. 

I'd be happy to run some debuging, but need to be told exactly what to type.
