KERMIT must do something with the '@' since it does indeed mess things up.
You need to change the TAC Identification Code from the @ to something else.
You can do this at the TAC by saying @i 25.  This changes the recognition 
character to a ^y.  Of course, then you have to type a ^yo 123.45.6.7 (or 
whatever number) instead of the @o number.
Alternately, you could log onto the system first and then type the command
@i 25.  Then go about your merry transfers.  Hope this helps...
