[10] CAN I ASSIGN ALIASES TO FORWARD TO MY MAIN ADDRESS?

    In a way, yes.  Basically the delimiter to use is '+'.  You can then
    use procmail (ARPA) to parse the To: header and route the email to
    a file, software or another address.  By default, all email addressed
    this way will end up in your $MAIL file.

    Example:  Userid is 'joe', email address is '[email protected]'
              Aliases could be '[email protected]' or
                               '[email protected]'  or
                               '[email protected]'

    While the '+' is documented in the SMTP standard, some html based
    mailing lists may barf on it and render it useless.

    All MetaARPA members who use 'setvmail' to toggle on/off the various
    'domains' available at SDF may also use this aliasing technique.
