Comment (by MikeHansenMe):

 I am not sure it is sanitize_user that is removing the @. I installed the
 following test plugin:


 {{{
 function test() {
         var_dump( sanitize_user( 'm at m.com', true ) );
         var_dump( sanitize_user( 'm at m.com', false ) );
         die;
 }
 add_action( 'admin_init', 'test' );
 }}}

 and it returned:

 {{{
 string(7) "m at m.com" string(7) "m at m.com"
 }}}

 I created a user with an email as a username and did see the @ get removed
 from the url. I will look into it more and see if I can find where it is
 getting removed.
