Right, I knew that.

I did not know that, however. Thanks.
The script is stupidly simple, but I will include it anyway in case anyone
cares:
#!/bin/bash
JDATE=$(gdate +%j)
cat << EOF > /etc/postfix/recipient_bcc.pcre
if !/backup.*@/
/^([^+_]*).*@([^.]*)/ backup+${JDATE}.\${1}-\${2}@southgaylord.com
endif
EOF
this results in a maildir for today for my list email address of
.251.kremels-kreme
Which is certainly easier to sort and search through than the previous method,
especially if I use an MUA instead of doing everything via the shell.
I was torn on doing the SI date, but decided since the backups are only short
term, there was no reason not to simply use the day of the year for sorting.
I use cron to run it at midnight
