Point three: Raise the issue of copying the +subaddr annotation. 
Suppose mail to local user user1 is forwarded to local user user2.  If
mail arrives for user1+foo, should it be forwarded to user2 or to
user2+foo?  Perhaps the MTA's notion of mail forwarding needs to be able

Isn't this a function of the mail delivery agent rather than the MTA?
Certainly many MTAs attempt to be both (sendmail), but truly the MTA
doesn't need to know about aliasing or forwarding.
