My, what a thread. What if there's an option to add a domain part
to unqualified addresses? I've seen this in many MUAs. In fact on
our campus we build the Mulberry installer to do this, for the very
reasons that Pat describes. At least for us, this has worked out
very well. The main MX host then knows what inbox server that
individual is using.
