I would like to try FreeFileSync to synchronize with a Livedrive briefcase through SFTP. The issue is that the username is my e-mail address, and this can't be changed. FreeFileSync does not handle @-symbols correctly. It keeps thinking that the e-mail server domain is the sftp domain. For example:
sftp://email@emailserver.com@sftp.livedrive.com
Then it tries to connect to sftp.emailserver.com.
I tried putting the username between single or double quotes, this does not help.
Any thoughts? Is this a bug or is there a workaround?
Cannot connect with SFTP when the username has a '@' in it

Support for @ and : in user names has been added (enter the actual login via the SFTP folder picker)
