thanks Fred, but unfortunately I have local_part_suffix_optional
and local_part_suffix in the local user router *and* I cannot exclude
that the redirected and original local parts are not equal (but, as I do
only accept aliases, this means that there is an entry in an alias files
for any local user that is also an allowed local_part).
For in instance, given lu1 and lu2 I may have in domain/alias

lpart1:    lu1
lu1:        lu1
lpart2:    lu2


that makes the following addresses deliverable: lpart1@domain lu1@domain
lpart2@domain
but lu2@domain is undeliverable.
