Awww, come on... don't leave 'em hanging. You should at least summarize..
% has lower precedence than @, but is evaluated left to right like @.

the following are "similar" addresses:
user%addr1@addr2
addr1!user@addr2
addr2!addr1!user
In all cases, the mail goes thru addr2 first, then to addr1, then to the user.
