Subject: Can some hostile addresses be parsed?

I didn't follow most of the discussion of hostile addresses, but
suddenly (either because of a popular new list or because of the upgrade
to 1.90) I'm having problems with Banyan Vines addresses.  I get stuff
like:  /R=IML3/R=AM/U=user_name/FFN=USER_NAME/@mr.dfo.ca
which is equivalent to user_name%AM%IML3@mr.dfo.ca, and apparently the
translation conforms to standards.  Any chance that these names could be
parsed by majordomo (this is clearly something that perl can do) into a
non-hostile form?
