An alias that looks like a mail path will work fine.  I have a whole bunch
of them to route all the different incarnations of Dan Heller to the same
address:

    alias island!maui!argv@cad.Berkeley.EDU	argv
    alias island!argv@Sun.COM			argv
    alias turnpike!argv@Sun.COM			argv
    alias argv@turnpike.Eng.Sun.COM		argv
    alias dheller@cory.Berkeley.EDU		argv

where of course "argv" is also aliased to whatever his preferred address
is at the moment.  If his preferred address happens to be the same as one
of the aliases, I comment out that one when I set the "argv" alias.

To test that the alias is working, find a message that is from the person
to whom you want replies re-addressed, set the current message to that one
(by using the "from" command or curses-mode motions) and give the command

    eval -h expand %a

This will show you how the author's address will be rewritten.
