Maybe my examples were too strange.  "bar@foo.invalid" and
"bar@foo.invalid.my.domain" are completely different addresses.
E.g. I know about a domain where the local parts "au", "bau" and "nau"
exist and belong to different persons.  It's wrong to assume that they
belong to the same person.

Bye, Reiner.
