In what context?  From inside Waffle itself, or from inside another program?

|As an example, mail addressed to foo%bar.uucp@buzz is being sent to
|foo.uucp@buzz

|Anyone know how to deal with this problem?

Yes, don't let 4DOS get a hold of it.  Read the section in DOS.DOC entitled
o  I am running 4DOS or Norton NDOS and addresses with %'s act funny.
