Hmm, ok.

Pushing a recipient onto @Recipients will work *only* if stream_by_domain
actually does stream the message. If the original message comes in
for only one domain, then adding a recipient to @Recipients will not work.
What you are trying to achieve is tricky. At filter_begin time, you have
to check if the original message has already been streamed. If it has,
then do nothing. If it has not, then you should call add_recipient *and*
push the recipient onto @Recipients and call stream_by_domain. Doing both
ensures that the recipient is added whether or not stream_by_domain actually
streams the message.
You can check the $WasResent global variable to determine whether or
not a message has been streamed. (But it's a hack.)
