I am using Dovecot 1.2RC2 with Postfix 2.5.5. Everything is running fine.
I would like to start using address extensions and have e-mail
automatically filtered into folders based on the folder name after the
"+"
in the e-mail address. I only use system users, no virtual users. I have
Deliver configured in main.cf as:
mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver
Everything I can find about setting this up applies to virtual users which
I do not have. How do I get Deliver to recognize the address extension.
I am sure it is easy, and I apologize for not finding the answer out
myself. Here is a copy of my dovecot -n output:

Actually deliver doesn't currently support that feature at all internally. You could always write a wrapper script that split the extension part and feed it separately to deliver.. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I guess I need to figure something else out. So, if I was create virtual users I would be able to use the +ext filter method?

I changed the line in main.cf to: mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -n -m "$EXTENSION" Now, in my logs it displays this: Apr 16 17:02:34 apple postfix/local[5990]: 3BFF77B8F24: to=<jeff+Dad at stikman.com>, relay=local, delay=0.06, delays=0.01/0.03/0/0.02, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -n -m "$EXTENSION") and tries to save the message in the dad folder. The only problem is the dad folder is listed as "Dad" and no matter what I put in the e-mail address, capital "D" or lowecase "D", it always tries to save it do "dad" which does not exist. deliver(jeff): msgid=<49E7C710.7060702 at stikman.com>: save failed to dad: Mailbox doesn't exist: dad Do I have to change all of my folder names to lowercase, or is there a easier fix I am missing? Also, a different problem in regards to this also. Now I am getting the following lines in my maillog file: Apr 16 17:02:34 apple dovecot: deliver(jeff): sieve runtime error: Keep: Generic Error Apr 16 17:02:34 apple dovecot: deliver(jeff): sieve_execute_bytecode(/home/jeff/sievec) failed This only started after I changed the deliver line in main.cf. If I can get + addressing working, I don't need the sieve script so I will remove it. Thanks, Jeff
