 As far as I can tell, Max won't do AKA matching.

Well, until the world changes to your expectations, if you don't want to
use Netmgr, then create separate netmail areas with different AKAs, and put
them in messagedivisions with your networks. You are using area divisions,
aren't you?
I'm not sure exactly what the specifics are, since NetMgr makes multi-zone
netmail seamless, but depending on your mailer, it may dump all incoming
netmail into the first netmail area. You might want to set that up as an
inbound-only area.
Just use Netmgr. It makes life much simpler, and allows you to do a lot
more that just move netmail.
