...except that the "+" (and everything between it and the "@") is *not* actually part of the email address. To use your address as an example: When Postfix receives an envelope for: mouss+nob...@netoyen.net It automatically strips the "+nobulk" and what it actually looks up in the database is: mo...@netoyen.net I assume that the "+" magic is hard-coded in Postfix, so if I [knew what I was doing, and] were to dig out the source code, it would be pretty simple to change it to use "_" instead of "+". If I were to upgrade this "hack" to something more respectable, I would: 1. Create a configurable parameter, rather than hard-coding it 2. Allow multiple characters (so I could still use "+" as well)
