Now I want to make my setup more robust and have these messages delivered to a maildir namespace.
I have configured the LDA within the Postfix master.cf file: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}
I have configured the 'dovecot' transport within Postfix in the transport file: test@lists.schang.net dovecot: … I can't get the userdb_mail portion to work. For this user, 'test@lists.schang.net', how do I tell Dovecot/deliver to put the message in the 'test' mailbox within the 'Lists/' namespace?
I'd appreciate any insight.
Use delivers -m parameter, works also with namespaces since Dovecot v1.1.x. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA#Parameters for details.
How do I use the -m parameter from within Postfix? Does that need to be included in the LDA definition within master.cf?
I have a total of about ten email address and I'd like each put into a different mailbox. By using the -m parameter, I can set up ten dovecot configurations within master.cf and then map each email address via the transport table. I can see how this will work, but it doesn't seem very scalable. Is there any better way?
Or said another way: the -m parameter to deliver works beautifully when I use it from within procmail for other email addresses. But how do I efficiently use the -m parameter (or equivalent) from within postfix given that I have about 10 namespace/mailbox combinations to put mail into?
Thank you.
