[Dovecot] Mail delivery to subfolders via address extension, and prefered lda method
Hi,
I want to deliver mails directly to subfolders, based on address extensions.
Example:
Emails sent to: micha+test@example.com
Should be stored into user micha, folder INBOX.test
I was able to reproduce this with exim and dovecot-lda:
command = /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -e -m "INBOX.${substr_1:$local_part_suffix}"
But I was wondering if I could do this within dovecot, which would enable me to use LMTP instead of dovecot-lda.
Which brings me to my second question:
Which method is "better" for dovecot, lda or LMTP?

lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox = yes

LMTP is often easier to setup and faster.
