lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox
lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox: " If the recipient address includes a detail element / role (as in user+detail format), save the message to the detail mailbox. "
Im not understanding this, what is the "detail mailbox"? I tried testing this feature by setting "lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox = yes" and sending an email to user+test@example.com. The email still ended up in the default inbox folder. So what does lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox do or is there another setting that also needs to be set to use this feature?

That means, if there is a mailbox with the same name as the used detail extension, it will move that email there.
In your example: Set "lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox = yes". Create a mailbox with name "test" in user's postbox. Then send an email to user+test@example.com and it will end up in mailbox "test" instead of INBOX.

Thank you very much.
Create a mailbox with name "test" in user's postbox. Then send an email to user+test@example.com and it will end up in mailbox "test" instead of INBOX.
I have noticed this is case-sensitive. If i create a folder "test" but someone sends the email to "user+Test@example.com" it wont get sorted into the folder. And other way around, if i make a "Test" folder then emails with capitalized Test make it there but non capitalized addresses get sent to the inbox.
Is there anyway it make this feature case-insensitive?

Im using the default for that setting and it shows it is already %Lu
[root dovecot]# doveconf -a auth_username_format managesieve(root): Warning: sieve: Invalid address value for setting `sieve_user_email': Missing domain auth_username_format = %Lu
FYI that sieve warning bug is still a thing :)
