The symbol @ is one of CMUD special characters. Using @ tells CMUD that text after this character is a variable name, not text that must be sent to MUD. You may quote @ symbol itself with another special character ~
myname~@mydomain.com
or quote the entire line with double quotes
"myname@mydomain.com"

You can also start a line with the ` character (not an apostrophe) to send that line literally to the MUD.

Also, I should mention that this is also on the bug list to be fixed in a future version. Them "smart" command line is supposed to send the @ character properly if it doesn't reference an existing CMUD variable.
