I understand your point and thank you for your reply.  Even though  
your response is valid I don't think it's the answer to my question  
since, in my case, I have no virtual users so I really shouldn't need  
to define a lookup.  The question:

"Is -d required any longer... and if so, how, please."

My overall goal relates to incorporating the use of the dovecot sieve  
module.  My current 'deliver' command line within postfix's main.cf   
"mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -e"  is working  
fine.  When incorporating the sieve filter I came across this in the  
wiki,  "The envelope sender is taken from a Return-Path: header in  
the message. The envelope recipient is taken from -d option passed to  
deliver."... and wondered if I MUST modify the 'deliver' command line  
to properly run sieve (and its vacation script).

Thank you again,
B. Bodger
