I've not used Courier, I use Cyrus.In my setup, Cyrus has separate mailstores for different domains so mark@qut.nl != mark@theregister.co.uk.
Postfix _tells_ Cyrus who the mail's for, including domain name, but Cyrus validates the localpart (mark) and accepts or rejects it based on whether the local part's valid for the domain.
