A method that is almost certainly impractical for an ISP, but eminently doable for corporate / small user community use, is to add the most commonly 'known and probable' mis-spellings and variants as aliases. Otherwise, the MTA itself should NOT ordinarily apply any wildcard or generalized rules for such. Silently delivering possibly-sensitive information to the wrong recipient is potentially far worse than bouncing it, and one has to wonder how effective 'require verify = recipients' could remain as a block to zombie broadcasts if soem algorithmic munging were in place.
