I think I just resolved this. WARNING: it's a hack, but I needed the
mail to get there!

In main.cf I added this line:
recipient_canonical_maps =
regexp:/etc/postfix/regexp_recipient_canonical

regexp_recipient_canonical contains this line:
/(.*)/ ${1}

After reading some email archives in which a person complained that
their cannonical rewrites were forcing everything to lower case, I
thought I'd try a rewrite that did nothing. It seems to work!

Now: what sort of negative surprises should I look for as a consequence
of this change?
