Client is unable to handle : in server password, such as used when connecting via znc bouncer #15

ZNC bouncers use passwords in the format of user:password. All seems fine when 
you save these details in jircii, connect via bouncer fine.

Next time client restarts, the port has shifted up so that hostname is now 
address:port, and user portion of server password has moved to port(s) field.

Might need to look at how you're handling / escaping your field delimeters in 
config saving / loading.

Others have identified this bug, and we are working on a fix. I will push it to 
the latest version soon.

Thank you you for your report!

As a hack for the time being, make your IRC e-mail address USERNAME@email.com, 
where USERNAME is the username for your bouncer. This is submitted to ZNC as 
your username. Your ZNC password can be entered in the Server Edit dialog, like 
normal. This works fine.

Although I don't use a ZNC, I do connect to one of the big networks via /server 
<server> <port> <nick:pass>.  The hack posted above for the ZNC does not seem 
to work in my case.  Any other sort of workaround?

Seems this is still an issue.  Prevents me from using jIRCii.  :-(
