This raises a good point. It's important for a mail server to handle the
postmaster@<domainname> for any of the domain names that server is handling,
which for James is the domains in <servername>. What I think I'll do it
automatically add an alias mailet to the top of the root repository that
rewrites any requests for postmaster at a servername to the postmaster
address specified for the server. This test will be case insensitive.

Yeah, not quite sure how to best handle this... my best idea so far is to
write a mailet you can optionally add which will convert all the local parts
to lowercase. This would change the address for external recipients (on
outgoing messages), so I'm not very please with this idea. Anyway, needs
some work.
