Re: Messages sent to alias+detail end up in INBOX

So there are two questions:

1. Is there a way to make dovecot-lmtp preserve the detail part of the address in the envelope?

or

2. Is there a way to cut a part of the address from the header "To"? I mean, cut the part between the + and the @ and use this part as a variable for fileinto. I have tried this:

if header :matches "to" "+(*)@" { fileinto :create "Tagged/${1}"; stop; }

but the message is still dropped into INBOX.

Just to ask - when you say 'alias' do you mean something is re-writing the address based on some rule? If so, it sounds to me like that is dropping the +detail...
