No, it doesn't. What makes you think it does? To qmail, there's nothing
special about an '@' symbol inside the local-part of an email address.
For example, a message to <foo@[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, handled by a qmail server which
handles mail for baz.net, will be delivered to local user "foo@bar". If you
don't have such a user, the message will bounce.
In no circumstances will the message be relayed to the server which handles
mail for domain "bar".
