An idle question: people who do SRS or similar things usually use
'=' as the replacement for '@' in the rewritten address
localpart=origdomain@mydomain

Is there any reason not to use the old routing character '%' instead?

I did this some years ago when I hacked in SRS to keep gmail happy
with one user's forwards, and never noticed a problem, but I've always
wondered why people don't do this, since surely nobody in the world still
runs a server that actually relays % addresses, and the people doing
the SRS certainly don't.
