Hmm, URL encoding we only support in URLs, for mta= or the file
command and all these places.  The above remains %40 all through
the way (luckily, i tested).

Thanks, Viktor.  I really have to look into this -- i think all
the other MUAs simply take some kind of from= (instead).

(The problem i have now, despite having not spent a thought
before, is that the SMTP "MAIL FROM:<XY>" command may contain
entire source routes as XY, at least historically, as in
@ONE,@TWO:JOE@THREE, but i think i will just strip B if we have
user=a@B and the hostname ends as B, too.  It seems unlikely that
a@B@B is anything anyone could truly desire.)

 |All the best to you!

Thanks Viktor.  All back to you, and greetings to Hungary!
Ciao,
