Perhaps a better way to do this is to use address extensions. For
example, if you have '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', you can also receive mail as
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Postfix supports
this feature but doesn't enable it by default. It's configured using
'recipient_delimiter' in main.cf. You might choose '.' or '-' as the
delimiter so that it isn't obvious to spammers that you're using the
feature.
