[jcifs] @ character in filenames

[Allen, Michael B (RSCH)]

In older versions this used to be true. If you're using 0.6.5 this is not true although
an '@' in the password does need to be encoded with '%' escape '%25'. If
you are finding that '@' in the path is still causing an issue, I'm afraid that is a
problem with the URL class. You will have to URL encode those regardless of
where they are which would be unfortunate.
