We use CE Software's QuickMail for all Macintosh mail within the 
Institute.  The Mail*Link program, originally from Starnine, provides a 
bridge between QuickMail and other mailers with an SMTP link.

QuickMail provides a first-name and a last-name part of an address and 
joins them with an underscore, eg., Fred's QM address: Fred Bloggs goes 
to Fred_Bloggs.  We decided when we first started to use QuickMail that 
we would use only its first-name field to contain names of the type 
<firstname>.<lastname>

Mail*Link rewrites addresses going from Quickmail as:
    <user>.<mailcentre>@<mail_link_bridge_name>.<domain> 
where <user> is the the user name, eg. Fred.Bloggs etc.  Notice that it 
uses a '.' in the address to mark the start of its mailcentre field.  

Is there any way to convince Mail*Link to use a character other than '.' 
to separate the user and host names?  For our purposes, a '%' would be 
more appropriate.  The form: <user>@<mailcentre>.<bridge>.<domain> would 
be preferrable but I suspect that this would be much harder.
