On the address-rewriting issues: my memory is that when even when the address rewriting scheme was first put into place that nobody was really happy with it. I seem to recall hearing that it was put into place almost as a kind of hack; the software we were using at the time (was it sendmail or something?) wasn't flexible enough to do the rewriting rules well, and the delivery/rewriting rules were so complicated that people were afraid to mess with them too much. It seemed to me from talking to people at the time (I'm pretty sure that I made at least one ticket on this issue and talked around a bit about it) that everybody was aware of the problem, but that we just didn't have a better solution.
It would seem to me that, if existing software now permits it, that the correct rule might that address rewriting should only be done on "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" if "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" has a meaning. Until this is fixed, the address rewriting seems to me to remain a bug.
