"deliver" is working fine.
/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d t...@domain1 < testmail creates the virtual mailbox. (uid,gid,mail,home through passwd sql) Currently we have a virtualusertable (FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable')dnl) virtualusertable looks like: us...@domain1 us...@hotmail.com us...@domain1 us...@hotmail.com @domain1 system-user For the moment, an email sent to t...@domain1 is forwarded to the system-user. The system-user has a .procmail-config where he places the incomming mail into the correct virtual-mailbox. Now we have replaced "local_procmail" with "deliver": FEATURE(`local_procmail', `/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver',`deliver -d $u') an email sent to t...@domain1 is placed in the system-user's real-mailbox. How to keep the external-forward-functionality of the virtualusertable and to be able to deliver into the virtual-mailbox?
