You can setup sieve to redirect email just from that one sender that shows up at the incorrect address—something like

if allof(address :is “from" "problem.sender at example.com”,
         address :is “to” “me at the-wrong-tld”) 
{
    redirect “me at the-correct-tld”;
}

If needed, you can add keyword test for the subject line.  I have tried testing the body for keyword, so no comment on that option.

Another option, is to have a script that connects to your IMAP server and moves mail for you.  For example, I use a perl script to process timesheets.  You would need to have the script open two IMAP connections (one for each TLD).
