I'll try to simplify to be more understandable:
I have a mailing group (or list if you prefer) e.g. developers@nth.ch. This group has many recipients, defined with LDAP attribute maiForwardingAddress for developers@nth.ch. Those recipients can be both internal (nth.ch) and external (any other domain - gmail, yahoo, etc.). So, when mail is sent to developers@nth.ch, it is delivered to all of the recipients in mailForwardingAddress, but also to developers@nth.ch mailbox; with qmail, that mailbox didn't even exist, i.e. mail was delivered only to mailForwardingAddress recipients, and no developers@nth.ch mailbox was created or deliverd a message.
So, that's what I want to achieve - mail to be delivered only to mailForwardingAddress recipient mailboxes. So, deliveryMode=nolocal with qmail meant - don't deliver mail to mail=something, only deliver to mailForwardingAddress=something.

I need some help with Dovecot+LDAP config and local delivery.
We're using Dovecot 2.0.9 on Centos 6.4. Before, we used Qmail with the same LDAP. Our LDAP accounts have the attribute
deliveryMode
which we used for mailing lists (OK, they are in fact mailing groups rather than lists). When the attribute is set to
deliveryMode = nolocal
Qmail did not deliver mail to the list mailbox, only to the accounts on the list/group.
So, there are multiple recipients per mail group? Or can the recipient be external?
Now with Dovecot(+postfix) I can't achieve the same behaviour. Can Dovecot be set up not to deliver the mail to the list mailbox if the list has the attribute deliveryMode = nolocal?
This is my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext hosts = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx auth_bind = yes dn = cn=admin,dc=nth,dc=ch dnpass = xxxxxxxxxx ldap_version = 3 base = dc=nth,dc=ch #deref = always scope = subtree user_attrs = mail=user user_filter = (|(&(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)(mail=%u))(|(mailAlternateAddress=%u))) pass_attrs = uid=user pass_filter = (&(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)(|(mail=%u)(mailAlternateAddress=%u))) default_pass_scheme = CRYPT
Basicaly, I want to make check: if deliveryMode=nolocal > do not deliver to mail=some.mail@tld.com (only to mailForwardingAddress) else deliver normally
If my above statement is true, this is the job of postfix to split the delivery into all recipients, possibly sending the message off the host. As it was with qmail.
