Hm. In fact I don't think that is possible.

You could try to do something like:

curl -Q "USER my_user_name" -Q "PASS my_password" -T uploadfile -u
  anonymous:my_email_addr ftp://ftp.upload.com/

... although I'm not sure that curl will behave exactly as wanted here,
because that USER line probably returns a 331-code and when the QUOTE
commands are sent, curl expects 2*-codes or will return an error...

Of course I would like to make this possible and I am very eager to hear what
suggestions you or anyone else might have how to solve this nicely with the
existing or new command line options!
