Dovecot's design issues to consider are as follows: a) making dovecot support hash/btree/dbm maps for passwd/userdb [AFAIR Timo stated it is too complicated to be "cost effective" from his perspective] b) making dovecot support sendmail's "socket map" protocol for checking mailbox existence The simple protocol is described in semdmail's doc/op/op.me file http://www.sendmail.org/doc/sendmail-current/doc/op/op.pdf c) making dovecot support LMTP protocol via unix socket
If I understand you right, this is a wish for virtual mailboxes, isn't it? Regular systems users work without problems. What I want is only the additional envelope receiver address available in dovecot-sieve. I see see no problems in mailbox selection in sendmail and dovecot.
From your perspective "socket map" support in dovecot may give a way to reject messages to "over quota" recipients in reply to "RCPT TO:".
