Thanks to everyone who helped me sort this out. This was the most helpful reply - I had been trying both with and without the -d switch without success. Using "doveadm mailbox list" showed me that the problem was with the delivery address. This is what I now have - and it works - Thanks to all: :0 w * ^List-Id:.*users.lists.fedoraproject.org | /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d mark -m MLists/Fedora Another two questions now please if I may: 1) I have tried both /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver and /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda and they both work. Are they equivalent? If not which should I use? 2) Switching to maildir, should the new delivery line now read: | /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d mark -m .MLists.Fedora/ (i.e. a dot before and after MLists and a trailing slash)? Thanks again for all the help and support. Much appreciated... Mark
