Thanks again Jan. I appear to have basic LMTP working now (messages are delivered to virtual mailboxes of valid recipients and non-existent recipients are rejected). Cool. Still lots more work to do.
But I think I could really use the Dovecot book. I find the wiki to be lacking in explanation. So, too often I'm just copying without knowing the reason why or how some things fit together. Peer: Is there any way to get an English copy of your book?
