my treatment of zzz!user@site.com depends on who utters it.

if the message arrives via uucp, i assume uucp addressing, i.e.,
ask zzz to mail it to user@site.com.

if the message arrives via smtp, i assume 822 addressing, i.e.,
ask site.com to mail it to zzz!user.

if the message originates locally, i follow a local convention.
but the issue here is the treatement of hybrid addresses when
issued by a remote, so i won't expand on the local convention.
