problem with + sign in inbox address

tsvlasuk says:
I've set up a Gmail filter that is supposed to intercept certain messages and forward them to my RTM inbox. I have checked and double-checked the address that I'm forwarding to, and it shows the address with the + sign, but I keep getting "undeliverable" messages, with the reported "problem" address having %2b instead of a +.
I found a thread here from January 2007 that recommended changing the + sign to the %2b code to avoid some issues, but in my case that conversion is being done automatically at some point, and that seems to be the problem.
What do I need to do to resolve this?

Sorry, I don't quite understand your instructions.
Do you mean that the filter /should/ use the %2b? Or are you asking whether I might have changed it myself accidentally?
Thanks,

Arvid or Emily,
Any further information on this? Does that error message help figure out what's happening?
