URL Encoded Emails
In order for the yum and zypper to pass the correct email address to the authentication protocols on the Software Delivery Repository, email addresses in the *.repo files must be URL encoded. For most email addresses, changing the "@" to "%40" is sufficient. For instance, "john.smith@company.com" would be entered as "john.smith%40company.com" in the *.repo file. You may use the URL encoded values from the list below or use an online tool like URL Decode and Encode to help encode your email address.
@ = %40 & = %26 / = %2F ` = %60 space = %20 ! = %21 ' = %27 = = %3D { = %7B , = %2C # = %23 * = %2A ? = %3F | = %7C . = . $ = %24 + = %2B ^ = %5E } = %7D % = %25 - = - _ = _ ~ = ~
