Im using Dovecot for LMTP for all my mail users, since this way they are completely virtual (i.e. dont need to have a local account at all), all mail gets delivered to Maildirs owned by dovecot. Also LMTP makes it easier to insert scripts and do any custom processing which presumably is where Sieve comes in. Its also pretty easy to setup.

Sounds like that's what I should be doing. OK, so how is Dovecot told to use LMTP instead of LDA? I must not be understanding something about what's in either 15-lda.conf or 20-lmtp.conf.
