I think if I had wanted to do this, I would have tried the autoreply
transport first, or a special purpose filter file.

I do seem to have made the new_address feature of smartuser behave more
like a router when it specifies a transport, in that it re-writes the
address rather than creating a new "child" address, thus losing the
original.
