I use this:
(setq bbdb-canonicalize-net-hook
#'(lambda (addr)
(cond ((string-match "djb@[^.]*\\.scream\\.org
(concat (substring addr (match-beginning 1) (match-end 1))
(substring addr (match-beginning 2) (match-end 2))))
(t addr)))))
(with loads more things in the cond to deal with other asr regulars with
magic morphing addresses; Athanasius and Kai first among them).
(disclaimer: heavily edited and untested after editing, but something
like that should work.)
