[Dovecot] Sieve autoreply woes on test setup

Hi,

I have been testing sieve in my setup with qmail-ldap and deliver on a LAN
with an artificial domain name. Everything seems to be working as expected,
except in cases when autoreplies (vacation, reject messages) need to be
tested.

The domain name is vmint, and dawnone is the hostname on which mail server
is setup, so a users have address like cot at vmint, cute at vmint and dove at vmint

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at vmint.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<cute at vmint.vmint
<http://192.168.1.137/squirrelmail/src/compose.php?send_to=cute%40vmint.vmint>>:
Sorry, I couldn't find any host named vmint.vmint. (#5.1.2)

This is an automated reply; I am away and will not be able to reply to you
immediately.I will get back to you as soon as I return.


*deliver is being called like this*:

deliver -f $SENDER -d $USER

where SENDER and USER are provided by qmail-ldap.

So, am not sure what component in the chain is appending a .vmint to
the existing domain name.

Any input appreciated, thanks.
