The problem I am facing is I can find no documentation about what lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox actually causes lmtp to actually do. Searching the wiki refers to it only in the LMTP page.

How should the detail of the address be formatted to specify a subdirectory - can it be specified even? Should I be using it?

<uid>+Sent@...
<uid>+users.<shared_uid>.SentNow@...
<uid>+Archive.2013-01@...

I think, you must use mUTF7 for non-ASCII characters, you cannot use spaces and @ and many other characters impose problems. Also, which hierarchie separator you need to use, depends a little, just try with dots and the configured separator.

Also, for testing I advice to enable lda_mailbox_autocreate, in order to see when you did wrong and can try another spelling.

Thanks - just what I needed to know.

I was about to set up an experiement, but I have to get postfix setup first (as a vehicle for delivering mail to lmtp) and there are aspects of that that I haven't got nailed yet.


Unfortunately my reading of the fileinto extension is that the destination can only be a literal string and not a "computed" value based on the date.

that's not the problem with the variables extension. See
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples
and search for

fileinto "users/${name}";


Brilliant - even better. I had searched for quite some time looking for that and hadn't found it.

Thanks
