Failed to Connect when sftp password contains @ char

[darwis059]

I have ssh password with @ char. after successfully add sftp source, vfs.sftp addons failed to connect when browsing for media files. it pass my password as username. here my ssh auth log:

sshd[9295]: Invalid user sssss from 10.38.9.221 port 53222
sshd[9295]: Failed none for invalid user sssss from 10.38.9.221 port 53222 ssh2
sshd[9295]: Received disconnect from 10.38.9.221 port 53222:11: Bye Bye [preauth]
sshd[9295]: Disconnected from invalid user sssss 10.38.9.221 port 53222 [preauth]

sssss is not my username, its part of my sftp password (after @ char)

Have you tried replacing the @ sign in the password with %40?
