It looks like it may very well have done that. I've put the transcript of a
test below....and it appears that no matter what, it says "Delivered-To:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]" How would I go about re-configuring this behavior
with TMDA and postfix to make this work? ....or has anyone done this, and
do they have any configs or faqs they can point me towards.

Up until TMDA, I've been fairly anal about filling up my aliases file with
different addresses so that if an alias was getting spammed, I could just
kill the alias and still protect my primary address. I would like to reduce
spam and protect my primary addresses in the process....as if they are not
exposed, I'm hoping that in some small measure, the primary address will not
receive spam.
...and this acct. that I've given an example of below is this:
USERNAME = "hostmaster"
HOSTNAME = "elitists.org"
FULLNAME = "NS Admin"
MESSAGE_FROM_STYLE = "angles"
CONFIRM_ADDRESS = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Thanks for any info or help,
Frank
Basically what I'm showing here is the initial test message and then the
