In general, if a message has more than one recipient (envelope
recipients, handled by the host in question), each is routed
independently with $local_part and $domain set to the respective values,
but $header_to etc. is the same every instance. Thus, the condition will
be true either for all recipients or for none, which might or might not
be what one wants. The exact messiness in this case is left as an
excercise to the posters.
