If i remember this correctly, this is how i did it. This is not how you envision it to happen though.

1 : Instead of bouncing emails which were sent to a wrong email addy, i routed them to a PHP script.

2 : The script parsed the username part in the "To" field and checked in DB, if match found, get the real email

3 : Re-mail the email to real address.
