Ok, I think I found the reason for this problem by doing some Wireshark
tracing.

When my picasa username is e.g. my.name at mydomain.de digiKam is doing a HTTP GET
to the URL

http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/my.name%2540mydomain.de

in order to get the list of available albums. Picasa webservers are then
returning a

"Unable to find user with email my.name%40mydomain.de at gmail.com"

So digiKam is doing a wrong URL conversion. The @ sign should be escaped to %40
and not to %2540 . Actually it seems like digiKam is doing the URL conversion
twice, because the % sign then of course is escaped to %25.

Users with a gmail account won't notice this problem, as there you don't have
to provide the full email address on logon, as Picasa automatically adds the
@gmail.com to everything it doesn't recognize as fully qualified email address.
