It appease that I can enable +address filtering into separate mailboxes by simply setting
$recipient_delimiter = '+';
However, is there anyway to get great control over that?
For example, on one account I have a lot of +addresses I use. A few, I sort into mailboxes (like my bank, credit cards, etc). The rest are either on the “spammer => /dev/null” list or get sorted into a mailbox named “Misc” (like various newsletters and offers and sales from companies I do business with).

No way, not with dovecot - use sieve...
the only reason to even remotely consider procmial is if you had a huge investment in procmail rules.
Procmail is ancient, unmaintained crap-crud... ;)

but i need time, and some good docs to get to know sieve..... (hints are welcome)
the short time that i had so far only revealed that it seems to be more complex than the simple procmail things i use ;)

It may be unmaintained but since it works, what maintenance is needed.
I've looked at Sieve but from what I've read, it's not as capable as Procmail. One thing I do with Procmail that I've yet to see as possible with Sieve is for messages from a particular sender, scan the contents for certain key phrases and if there, send an email to another external address (the email address for sending text messages to my phone) with content extracted from the original message (no, not a simple forward due to the SMS character limit).
If Sieve is capable of the above, I'd appreciate a pointer to appropriate documentation.

I guess the sieve extprograms extension should be able to do anything that can be scripted. http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole/raw-file/tip/doc/rfc/spec-bosc...

Sorry, I meant "in dovecot" (or maybe sieve)
I'm already using procmail.
