It always works for me but if you repro it it is worth it to get some
debug data if possible.

Yeah qmail uses - for tagging for whatever reason. The rest of the
internet uses +.

Right, I tag sites for the same reason :)
I just tried your recommendation with OpenSMTPD:
$ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 janssen.my.domain ESMTP OpenSMTPD
helo localhost
250 janssen.my.domain Hello localhost [127.0.0.1], pleased to meet you
mail from: <jwm+test@localhost>
250 2.0.0: Ok
rcpt to: <jwm+testmail@localhost>
250 2.1.5 Destination address valid: Recipient ok
Seems to work here, but not with qmail:
failure: Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)/
So: as a temporary solution, I can use my script to populate
/etc/mail/aliases
and switch to giving out jwm+* addresses from now on.
Thanks,
James
