Postfix also sends, dovecot correctly places mail with '+'addressing; i.e., "foo+bar@domain.com" into "path-to-mail/domain.com/foo+bar".
If you are using plus addressing, the actual user is 'foo', so this mail should go into '.../domain.com/foo', not '.../foo+bar' - unless you are using sieve, in which case it *could* be delivered to a subfolder called '.../foo/.bar' or '.../foo.bar'
The problem is when I attempt to access the mailbox, the user name: foo+bar@domain.com is rejected.
Thats because the user is 'foo', not 'foo+bar'...
If you are using dovecot LDA?

This is the folder it is delivered to.
drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 512B Oct 7 11:56 foo+bar/
I am using maildir format.
/usr/local/etc/postfix/master.cf
#Dovecot with '+' addressing dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${user}@${nexthop} -a ${recipient}
I have not been able to get sieve working yet. It will take awhile.
