The question I thought I was answering was how to make the address
  <Barney.Wolff at motherofallbanks.com>
route to my actual account, <Barney.Wolff at dept9876.motherofallbanks.com>.

If external correspondents use the sub-domains the problem is easier,
but employees in large orgs move around so often it's impractical.
