I think + addresses are the extension referred to above; have you tried
them? I.e., [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- most modern SMTP servers will Do
The Right Thing, and deliver it to the mailbox for user chris. Sendmail
does it, so does postfix, qmail does it but uses a - instead of a + by
default. I'm sure others do as well.
Oh yeah, almost forgot -- only the MTA that invokes the MDA needs to
support it.
