when I was confronted with this, I decided that what was right for
users, would never be correct programaticly. different syntaxs make
sense for different queues.

So I have my rt server accepting unweildly machine syntax, and my
mailing server has aliases from nice things to scary things. (see the
scary exim hack in the docs) 

Not perfect, but it's the balance that worked for me.
