 That's odd, I tested it and was able to reproduce the issue easily (using
 the latest trunk version of WordPress).

 Are you running an older version of WordPress?  I suspect this issue may
 have been introduced a few months ago (in r58069).

 See [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/aa2b4fd6eded4e229335765c6f87ffc2353f5638/src/wp-admin/user-
 edit.php#L17 this line] which will strip out any %-encoded characters,
 including the `@` symbol (encoded as `%40`).

 {{{#!php
 $wp_http_referer = ! empty( $_REQUEST['wp_http_referer'] ) ?
 sanitize_text_field( $_REQUEST['wp_http_referer'] ) : '';
 }}}
