If we use a pattern like the persons unique username:
Elliot Chance <forums-chancey(at)postgresql(dot)com(dot)au>
John Smith <forums-jsmith(at)postgresql(dot)com(dot)au>
Then I can create a catch-all so that when an email is sent to forums-chancey(at)postgresql(dot)com(dot)au it finds the user "chancey" gets the real address and sends it on. If there were a way we could register a range for mj2 like accept all emails from forums-*(at)posgresql(dot)com(dot)au then I think that solution would work well.
