Hello,

first of all, please reply private as I am not subscribed to the list.
But if this question takes to much traffic I can subscribe.

the problem with non members is that some server in the path may discard or bounce our mail, and they won't get it.

My problem is that I have to use procmail (as it can call external
programs) which finally calls deliver. My main rules are sieve and they
work find except that I cannot use subaddress matching in envelope to
(not envelope send which has been addressed earlier). But As I use the
'+'-Feature the envelope to will be the one interesting for me.

For example, I am subscribed to the mailing list gimp-devel with
[EMAIL PROTECTED] So I want to use:
   require ["fileinto", "imapflags", "subaddress", "envelope"];
   ...
   if envelope :detail :is "To" "gdev"
   {
      fileinto "Mailinglisten.gimp-devel";
      stop;
   }

why not use a header specific to the list instead of your address? I mean something like:

if header :contains "List-Id" "<gimp-developer.lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU>" {
        fileinto "Mailinglisten.gimp-devel";
        stop;
}

This is independent on your address. so if you ever change the subscribed address, you won't need to change the rule. and if other users on your system need a similar processing, they can copy the rule.


But if I call the deliver tool from procmail this will not work and the
mail falls thought to the next matching rule or the implicit delivery.
In the resulting mail, Envelope-to: is set correctly but no sorting.

Is there any way to use the Envelope-to: header for this?
