If your mail server supports it, use plus addressing (procmail line in postfix should be

mailbox_command = /usr/local/bin/procmail -t -a $EXTENSION

to support the extensions)

You will also need

recipient_delimiter = +

but that is the default.

So, have your admin email be n+phpbb3(_at_)linearg(_dot_)org and then use this procmail recipe:

ARG = $1

:0
* ! ARG ?? ^^^^
$ARG

The nice thing about this is you can put ANYTHING after the + and it will be sorted into a seperate mailbox (of course, use $ARG/ fo maildir, etc).
