[Yum] Using yum against password protected http repositories

[Peter M. Abraham]

Greetings Seth:

Thank you.

My user name is based on an email address so there are two "@" (one in the 
user name, and then after the password).

That appears to choke.

I tried escaping the first @ but that doesn't work.

Thoughts?

Thank you.
