This is what is not working for me.

Your procedure below is good and maybe I will use parts of it, thank
you. But this part is working for already. The incoming mail
is sent to dovecot (postfix virtual alias working) and the
match in sieve script is correct too.
The problem is that dovecot (sieve) refuses to
 fileinto "Namespace/folder"
because it seems it wants to store the mail
in private namespace with "folder1/folder2" instead.
The first part of the fileinto path isn't used as
namespace name.
Is there a config option for this behaviour?
