Under rn is it legal to specify the following in a locak KILL file?

	&-EMAILRC=%p/%C/.mailrc

In the rn manual is given the example `&-ESAVENAME=%t', but I have the
feeling that in a KILL file the syntax is more restricted.  Am I
right?  

If I debug Mail I get that MAILRC is set to the string '%p/%C/.mailrc'
with all the percents intact.  Did I misread the man pages?

Thanks,
