This old bug is about post ignoring a login name in .netrc:

I had closed it, but I really think that it should be fixed.
The current behavior is to determine the user using the
first of:
1) -user switch
2) local login name
I'd like to change the behavior to:
1) -user switch
2) matching host entry with "login" in a .netrc
3) interactively request name from user
Done. The new behavior is optional, enabled with a "credentials"
profile entry. See mh-profile(5) for syntax. Also, any valid
filename can be specified in place of $HOME/.netrc.
