That would be like having a COMEFROM command in a programming
language instead of a GOTO :-)

The quick 'n dirty method would be to add otherdomain.com as
a 'Host Alias' for mydomain.com and create an 'info' alias that
resolves to johndoe.

Note that this method means that all [EMAIL PROTECTED] will have
an alternate address of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you don't want this side effect you'll have to setup a separate
virtual domain for otherdomain.com.

Note, in either case you better have a MX entry for otherdomain.com.
