Unless you specifically configured qmail to do this, by creating an
appropriate /var/qmail/control/percenthack control file, it is
definitely _not_ qmail doing this.  qmail does not treat a percent sign
in the way you're describing -- that's a sendmail-ism.  To qmail, it's
just another legal character in the local-part of an address.

But you didn't show us the message headers or logs he asked about, so we
can't help you further.  Show us the qmail logs which show the
following:

  -message from <whatever> addressed to <foo%domain1@domain2>
  -message being delivered from <whatever> to <foo@domain1>
