I know we do use the gateway access (over a lan connection) to an HP9000
system running HP-UX.  Our address from desk to unix looks like:

	 ux_acct (ux_acct)/loc/sub_loc

where ux_acct is my unix account name, loc and sub_loc are location code
and sublocation codes.  The mail is dumped onto the unix hub and directed
to ux_acct, where ever that account lives.  This implies that all ux_acct's
are unique - or that there are more than one gateway.  Also, we use the 
autoforward on the hpdesk to redirect our mail to the unix hub over the
gateway.  This eliminates the need for desk users to know our unix acct
names.  I don't know if this solves your problem, but it works for us.
