<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user-folder@domain.com">user-folder@domain.com</a>
This delivers to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@domain.com">user@domain.com</a> and puts it in the IMAP "folder" for
that user. The folder has to already exists for this to work. It's very
popular with my users too because it's like each folder has it's own
email address.
I suggest Dovecot support this idea, but it would need some
configuration settings. My choice of a single "-" for the delimiter
between user and folder probably wasn't the best choice. So the
delimiter needs to be setable.

I think the best way to implement this would be to code it using a Sieve
script. I'm not sure if it's powerful enough without extensions though
(I've only seen simple Sieve scripts), but I think that's the right way
to do it..

Would a single Sieve script be able to do this for all users. I'm not
familiar with Sieve so would anyone have an example of how to do this?<br>
<br>
If sieve can't do this for everyone in a single script then I'd like
you to keep thinking about my proposal for direct delivery to folders
with some kind of user[<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:delimiter]folder@domain.com">delimiter]folder@domain.com</a> syntax. I'm using
that and it is very powerful. <br>
