Hammer Not Compiling Properly With Steam

<div class="IPBDescription">Hammer+Steam=**** mapper</div> A real smart thing to let steam have a folder with an e-mail adres in it to let other programs get confused >_<

My problem is that whenever I try to let hammer compile a map directly in my steam nsp folder, hammer totally losses it.
Instead of compiling the map into "youremail@isp.net"/half-life/nsp/maps it gets really confused at the "youremail" folder; hammer compiles maps in the steamcache folder all with the name of "youremail@isp".bsp.
Clearly it does this because steam has the idiotic property of having an e-mail adress in a foldername... <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->

And all tools do this the original and both new and old tools of cagey.
So if anyone knows something about this plz help me for I am losing it >_<

    Move your map source to another folder.

    Oh, and; this is the wrong forum and this question has been answered countless times. Please search before asking <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, you could always wait for p13 that fixes the bug, or do what we do (which is moving the map source).

    That was the first thing I did when I noticed steam was messing around, but if you want to have a quick peek at your map and you will it gets really frustrating when placing maps manually 132 times....
    thnx anyway lets hope p14 goes public soon <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    You can add a copy line at the end of the process...
