What is the rationale?  Are they running sshd as non-root or in a chroot 
jail? Or just to try and confuse port scanners?

If he has sshd running on his local box and vanallp@paul is his local user 
and host name it should still work to specify it, yes?  I've used scp to 
do third party transfers lots of times, but never a third party from my 
own box.
