Especially if baz.com has something like (assuming sendmail)
CO @ % !
That would just prohibit such relaying hacks by restricting their use in local
parts. If one of these is put back in, you stand the risk of being abused by
some spambag or the other ... lots of spamware mail clients are _designed_ to
send mail using such pathing hacks.

I think he's definitely trying to relay through baz.com to foo@bar - % is just
one of hte possible pathing hacks he can use.
