Isn't this exactly what SMART_ADDRESS_MATCH is for?

        # When true, Mailman will consider user at host.domain to be the same address as
        # user at domain.  If set to 0, Mailman will consider user at host.domain to be the
        # same address as user at Host.DoMain, but different than user at domain.  Usernames
        # will always be case preserved, and host parts of addresses will all be
        # lowercased.
        SMART_ADDRESS_MATCH = 1
