Ok, so let's look into this possiblity some more. A couple of scenarios
where I'd like to think about what should happen...

Would you also want to handle username forwards? For example:

  @domain -> username@
    squashes all [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] down to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  username@ -> otherusername@
    changes any instance of username to otherusername.

What would you do about +mailbox subaddressing? Just leave it on there?

At what point are we writing too many special cases, and should instead
just do some kind of regular expression replacement? This was something we
talked about doing for 2.2 but didn't have time to get done. I suppose we
can put it back on the todo list...
