This setting by itself is only evaluated by Sieve scripts to let the 
address :detail test work.

In combination with lda_mailbox_autocreate and lda_mailbox_autosubscribe 
and lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox this setting is used for LMTP delivery to 
override the default mailbox.

Dovecot LDA uses the "-m" option and only lda_mailbox_autocreate and 
lda_mailbox_autosubscribe, no need for recipient_delimiter to override 
the default mailbox.
