It can probably be dropped, and the second percent sign replaced with an "at" sign (@): yogi%humus.Huji.AC.IL@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU What this address means is that the message will be sent to CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU, which will then resend it to yogi@humus.Huji.AC.IL (i.e., it will drop everything from the original "at" sign and beyond, replace the percent sign with another "at" sign, and resend it). If the "IL" domain is reachable from your site, you can just send a reply straight to yogi@humus.Huji.AC.IL (IL being Israel, not Illinois). -- Theodore A.
