Wow, does this work?  I always use:

    post.demon.co.uk
    mcr@holly.demon.co.uk
    user1%a.b.c.com@post.demon.co.uk
    user2%a.b.c.com@post.demon.co.uk
    user3%a.b.c.com@post.demon.co.uk
    user4%d.e.f.com@post.demon.co.uk
    user5%d.e.f.com@post.demon.co.uk
    user6%d.e.f.com@post.demon.co.uk

If yours works the same as mine, what is the difference to 
post.demon.co.uk of the different envelope syntaxes?
