Sub addressing delimiters

[Kurt Fitzner]

Hello,

There is a disconnect between the way Postfix handles 
recipient_delimiter and the way Dovecot handles it.  For Postfix, it is 
a set of delimiters that can each individually be used to separate the 
address from the .  In Dovecot, having multiple characters in 
recipient_delimiters simply makes it a multi-character single delimiter.

For my purposes, the Postfix method is much more versatile.  Extra 
delimiters can be added without breaking the way users currently have 
delimiters.

I am wondering what the odds are of reconciling the two approaches, 
hopefully in favour of the Postfix one.  Failing a switch to the other 
behaviour, is it possible to add the Postfix method as an option?  Would 
a patch for either of these be accepted?

Thanks,
