Yup, this. Only recourse, as I see it, is one of the following:

1) Contact the senders and let them know that address doesn't belong to who
they think it does. Encourage them to notify the correct person.
2) Try and contact the other person and get them to stop giving out that
email
3) Create a filter to delete anything sent to the incorrectly formatted
address
