I should have also said that any email, whether SRS signed or not, is
subject to RFC 2821 and 2822.  One of these documents (I can look it up
later when I'm at my full computer and not a PDA) says that only a mail host
for the domain in the envelope address can assign any semantics at all to 
the local part.  Which means: if you detect SRS signatures in the local part
and drop mail, then you are violating RFC.  You should treat SRS signed mail
exactly as you would any other mail from the domain in the domain part of
the envelope.
