I was perhaps confused. I thought the issue was not wanting to have to
type the name, and system-wide resolution is one way. But if it were
just you, just for a couple addresses, and it it were just about
having it route automatically, a local (e.g., mutt) or system-wide
(/etc/aliases) alias would be easier.
