We could expand "%am" to \C-h (\010) so that "%al@%am" would end up
displaying the same as "%al" but that would be way too cute for its
own worth ;-)

It is unfortunate that "%al@%am" cannot be the same as "%ae" for
local-only address, but giving an empty string for "%am" if "%ae" is
local-only would be the best we could do for our users, and certainly
much better than giving the same as "%ae", as you said above.

Thanks.
