I have a situation where my LMTP RCPT TO: goes to a mailbox user account that does not reflect either the final (through aliasing) or envelope email address.
SMTP RCPT TO: (envelope-local-part@envelope-domain) Final Recipient: (final-local-part@final-domain) LMTP RCPT TO: (mailbox-local-part@mailbox-domain)
I don't understand the difference between the last two. The first one is what I call the original recipient, the last one is what I call the final recipient.
How is this supposed to work?
Well, the point it that that it doesn't currently. Yes, you're correct on the first one, but our LMTP recipients aren't public email addresses, so the LMTP recipient isn't the "final" email address, but the address prior to that (internal aliasing on the MTA and inserted as a different header). It's a many-to-one mapping so it couldn't just be aliased back the other way by the MTA using a reverse path, either.
