Hi!
Are you sure it works with aliases? I have tried putting it in my sieve, but
for me it works only for "user+detail", i.e. when I use an actually existing
user name + detail. If I use an "alias+detail", the message is still dropped
into INBOX.
And I guess I now understand why: when a message is trancferred by dovecot-lmtp
from an alias to the end user, it loses its detail part of the "Envelope-To".
The detail part of the address is preserved only in the header "To".
So there are two questions:
1. Is there a way to make dovecot-lmtp preserve the detail part of the address
in the envelope?
or
2. Is there a way to cut a part of the address from the header "To"? I mean,
cut the part between the + and the @ and use this part as a variable for
fileinto. I have tried this:
if header :matches "to" "+(*)@" {
fileinto :create "Tagged/${1}";
stop;
}
but the message is still dropped into INBOX.
