Treating address localpart with '+' as if it didn't have it?
A lot of mail servers will take an address like
denis+test@haskinferguson.net and strip off the plus and everything
after it and process the mail as if it was to denis@haskinferguson.net.
I know that may not strictly be RFC 2822, but it can be a handy feature.
Is this configurable with James out of the box or would I have to write
a mailet for this?
(Apologies if this has been asked before; it's sort of a hard thing to
write a good query for in the mail archives.)
Thanks,
dwh
