It would be very rare that a sender HAS to use source-routing such as the % method, so the assumption is that anyone doing so is either deliberately trying to relay mail through your server or using a broken client that defaults to this kind of outdated notation (another sign of the poor programming that seems, luckily for us, to often coincide with spamming). However, there is nothing *definitively* malicious or fully RFC-illegal about using the %, so someone MIGHT have an opt-in database or strange server configuration that spits out this kind of address. In 99.999% of cases in which it is used without malice, it is still probably unnecessary, but I'm sure you know the problems of trying to get clients' clients to change their systems. I don't use the PERCENT test at all, for the record. -Sandy --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
