That's not a good idea. Assume domain.com is configured that way and some
user on a completely different domain ([email protected]) forwards their mail
to [email protected]. Then what happens if some [email protected] sends
mail to [email protected] ?

One large email provider in Poland was once configured that way (or maybe
still is?). That provider was domain.com from this example, and I was
at that time administering a mail server at a university that was site.net
from this example. Many people forwarded their university email to private
email acccounts, some of them being at domain.com. This caused a lot of
trouble for us.
