Description:
------------
I had problem with an email address in a cookie where it was urlencoded.

I was using a php script to request pages from a web server and when I passed my email address in a cookie to the web server it would recieve %40 instead of the @. I turned logging on for cookies on the web server and a browser sends the @ but my script sent a %40.

Reproduce code:
---------------
function addCookie($name, $value)
{
$cookies = isset($this->_requestHeaders['Cookie']) ? $this->_requestHeaders['Cookie']. '; ' : '';
# $this->addHeader('Cookie', $cookies . urlencode($name) . '=' . urlencode($value));
$this->addHeader('Cookie', $cookies . $name . '=' . $value);
}

Expected result:
----------------
The code above fixed the problem.

Actual result:
--------------
sent %40 instaed of @
