I solved my problem by adding another nickname-local-user; one alias ends up
at one nick; the other alias at the other nick. done. as simple as that.
(why did I not think of that before?).
However; I'm still wondering what syntax to use for an SMTP time rewrite
that does:
<if you encounter john@???> <replace with othernick@???>
STtcb
anyone?
