The easiest way seems to be to go the manual route and make two copies
of the archiver. Have the first router detect if it's an alias and if
it is (you'll have to construct a "condition" statement that does this
for you), then don't do the passwd check above. Instead do a more
limited test to determine if the alias is valid. The second router
should basically detect if it's NOT an alias and then do the
local_parts test above.
