Certainly (wasn't on the list of "things to put in a post" on the web site, so I missed it):

Which website?

http://www.dovecot.org/mailinglists.html

And I missed it, it says "use dovecot -n when showing your configuration".

http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html

I was sure it wasn't a bug, it was a screwup on my part in the configuration, so I didn't read the bugreport page.

I have suggested that Timo put a short simple list of troubleshooting suggestions (ie, asking for dovecot -n output and basic non-verbose logs (unless/until asked for verbose logs)) in the welcome message when subscribing to the list (like postfix does)... but in all honesty, most people don't read those either.

Well, there could also be a "dovecot-bugreport" script. Much as I hate 'em, sometimes they work...

Regardless, providing configuration details and logs exhibiting the problem is one the most basic requirements when asking for help on any email support list I've ever been on...

I really thought it would be a simple "here's what you missed", since the logs are relatively uninformative. . .

Not sure how anyone was supposed to guess that you were using sendmail either...

And even when you replied to toms message suggesting you provide some logs, you still didn't...

We'll be happy to try to help you, but we'll need your help in order to do that...

Thank you, I recall from years ago how responsive and kind people are on this mailing list. I certainly wasn't trying to be cryptic.

Here's the complete set of everything. I wrote a little script to do this repeatedly, to make it easy to make changes and try again.

Note that in the last test, it works. Simply adding "X-Original-To: rewards+test@enoent.net" and sending the same message with "/usr/lib/sendmail -t < msg" will do what's expected.

Ok, I think this is the problem...

Dovecot's LMTP currently does NOT preserve the x-original-to header... in fact, brought this up recently (I was one of the ones interested in Timo adding support for it) on this (and the postfix, which is what I use) on this very list:

http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-April/065075.html

Apparently, after Timo discussed this on the postfix list, he determined that it would not be a very significant change for him to make to add support for this header in LMTP and that he would get to it sooner than later, but as of now, it has not been added.

Ok, that's what I get for replying to an email like this before having at least my first cup of coffee... ;)

What Timo said was that LMTP doesn't currently have support for *adding* the headers, but it doesn't remove them either, so I misspoke when I said it doesn't *preserve* the headers - it does.

I had asked the question specifically because postfix's LMTP support does *not* provide the header, so Timo figured a way to add support for adding it in dovecot's LMTP implementation (but it currently doesn't have it).

So, since apparently sendmail *does* add it to its LMTP implementation, and apparently your sieve script works properly when it is present, you need it for it to work correctly.

Why, I do not know, but someone else with more knowledge can probably answer that one now.
