This is probably not an error. Usernames must be unique across the entire
server and can receive mail. So if you have user "seanc" defined, then seanc
will receive mail for seanc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Better to define users as something not useful, and address emails using
aliasing, which is specific to domains.
