You sure do! This has nothing to do with relay_recipient_maps (which do
recipient validation, not rewriting).

With stacked maps each key is tried in each map, before the next key is
tried. So if "mapA" contains key "K" and "mapB" contains a catchall entry
that matches *all* keys (a wildcard regexp entry) the stacked map "mapA,
mapB" will yield the catchall entry for "K+extension".
Do not use regexp catchalls if you want extensions to work.
To see the details of address rewriting, look at "-v" output from
"cleanup" not "smtpd".
