Dear list,

emacs ftp mode uses a wrong user name, so I can't login to my ftp server. E.G.

C-x C-f
/username@host:filename

emacs uses "username@host" as username, which is wrong, because username is "username" and not "username@host". I also tried ange-ftp-set-account to specify the ftp account, but emacs always tries to login with "username@host", which always fails.

Any ideas?
Thanks, Sven

Found the problem: ftp does not work for me, I have to use lftp.

Thanks, Sven
