In an alias file that's queried by "search_type = lsearch*@" I have:

*:      ${local_part}@???


If someone sends mail to "some username"@??? then the message is
frozen ("missing or malformed local part", etc) rather than being sent
to "some username"@???. Is the correct fix to put quotes like

*:      "${local_part}"@???


in the alias file? This seems to have the desired effect but I'm not
sure whether it produces any other side-effects.

(Yes, I know spaces in usernames are weird. I'm aiming for the
other.domain MX to bounce the message, rather than have it freezing on
the queue at this.domain.)

Thanks,
Dave
