Assume and e-mail address of: me+dovecot at domain.com
I have a sieve script that sorts mail into the appropriate folders
using "+" addressing. I want to extend it to also work with mailing
list like this one. A post from the dovecot forum arrives with a
Delivered-To: me+dovecot at domain.com when I receive it. The "To"
is to dovecot. I cannot figure out a way to get sieve to filter on the
"Delivered-To" portion rather than the "To" portion using
plus
addressing. There are several other names; i.e, john, joe, bill, nancy,
etcetera that would have the plus suffix of (in this scenario anyway)
dovecot. Filtering on each individual address would be a real PIA. I
believe it is not supported though.
EXAMPLE:
This works fine when filtering on the "To" attribute:
Assuming email address: me+dovecot at domain.com
## Plus Addressing
if envelope :detail "To" "dovecot"
{fileinto "Dovecot"; stop;}
Unfortunately, I cannot substitute the "Delivered-To" attribute in
place of the "To" one. I know and currently do sort based on the
"List-ID" attribute; however, I have other reasons for wanting to sort
only on the delivery address.
Is there anyway to actually incorporate the plus addressing feature
with the delivery address?

Use the address test in stead. if address :detail "delivered-to" "dovecot" {} Regards, Stephan.

Strangely enough, I never saw a single example of plus addressing with sieve that used that syntax. I was incorrectly under the impression that only "envelope" would work. -- Jerry ?
