There is a thread in the Dovecot mailing list discussing this subject, but I think it best to ask here aswell:
My Dovecot 2.0 configuration contains these lines auth_username_format = %Ln service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { user = postfix group = postfix mode = 0660 } } and I have included the lines myhostname = server.domain.tld mydestination = $myhostname localhost.$mydomain localhost mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp in my main.cf. When Postfix is asked to deliver mail to u...@server.domain.tld it does so using Dovecot's LMTP socket. What bothers me about this configuration is "auth_username_format = %Ln" in my Dovecot config. The parameter affects all user lookups, which means that one cannot distinguish between u...@domaina and u...@domainb during IMAP login. I wonder how I can setup a transport which drops the @server.domain.tld suffix when Postfix delivers mail via LMTP? -Ralph
