Ah, I darkly remember procmail and friends again, but the aliases
solution is certainly better, since it requires no mailbox at all.

Well, then we just need two more things:

 * full domain control over monotone.ca to configure the new server as
   MX server in the DNS (and for other things)
 * a working mail server which accepts mail for this DNS

I asked this on IRC yesterday already: who is again in charge for
monotone.ca? Graydon is, right?
