I think everyone shares your concerns. But there are no rules that the
outcome of this merger must get something bad, so let's see what
happens. I hope that it's true what Timo said and that dovecot can
evolve and get even better as it is today. Good luck guys!

Dear List
Using dovecot 2.1.7 with LMTP and exim4 I want to accept local parts
regardless of their case.
Exim does all virtual alias handling and delivers the messages to
dovecot LMTP addressed to the right mailbox name. This works well except
for addresses which do not need to be resolved
ke to
happen.
Isn't there another solution? A feature request for a new option
lmtp_username_format?
Regards, Adrian.

Hi again
Thanks for helping me on this, especially to Steffen. If you do not need
case sensitivity on user names the use of a redirect router in exim to
lowercase the local part of the address to deliver works well.
If one wants for whatever reasons to have support for user names, that

I tried this with dovecot 2.1.7, but it did not work. It may work on a
newer dovecot?
Regards, Adrian.
I've updated the wiki under:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LMTP/Exim
to document the discussed problem. Maybe someone can review this.

Hi Philipp
You can use exim to prepare the address as you wish: only the user name
for pam users and the full address for virtual users.
Configure a new router to strip the domain part for pam users:
local_pam_users:
debug_print = "R: strip domain for local pam users"
driver = re

Dear Anant
According to RFC 3848 you should not remove those headers. RFC 5321
(SMTP), Section 4.4. also says that trace information is mandatory to
add and RFC 2033 (LMTP) makes no exception to this.
If you do not like those headers, use LDA for local storage, it doesn't
add any headers.

Is this necessary? Exim calls the dovecot-lda as user $local_part and if
you setup your mail storage to have the right permissions, this should
work without SUID. But maybe I'm wrong; anyway in the wiki there is a
