… Was there any specific reason for having dovecot remove the +extension?
Timo and I talked about the Delivered-To w/ or w/o +ext on irc (#dovecot). I asked him to remove the extension from the Delivered-To header. Before that I've checked the headers inserted by Postfix.
Knows someone what is the correct address format in the Delivered-To header? Any RFC, …?
According to http://www.postfix.org/local.8.html, the Delivered-To header is part of the qmail system.
HISTORY The Delivered-To: message header appears in the qmail sys- tem by Daniel Bernstein.
"In order to stop mail forwarding loops early, the software adds an optional Delivered-To: header with the final envelope recipient address."
I need the +extension, so I interpret "the final envelope recipient address" to include the +extension :-)
