--- Begin Message ---Package: postfix Version: 0.0.19991231pl11-2 Severity: wishlist We have turned on the recipient_delimiter feature using the suggested '+' symbol as the delimiter. We have found that we receive mail for "cn=login/o=ex...@domain.com" from time to time, which bounces. It appears that at least one MTA or MUA 'helpfully' converts login+ex...@domain.com to cn=login/o=ex...@domain.com. We have worked around this using a recipient_canonical file: (main.cf) recipient_canonical_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/recipient_canonical -- Begin /etc/postfix/recipient_canonical /^cn\=(.*)\/o\=(.*)\@(.*)$/ ${1}+${2}@${3} -- End /etc/postfix/recipient_canonical My suggestion is to suggest in the documentation that a similar workaround be implemented for people using '+' as the recipient delimiter. cheers, Woody -- System Information Debian Release: 2.2 Kernel Version: Linux beast 2.2.19 #1 Thu Nov 1 19:52:06 EST 2001 i686 unknown Versions of the packages postfix depends on: ii adduser 3.11.1 Add users and groups to the system. ii libc6 2.1.3-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libdb2 2.4.14-2.7.7.1 The Berkeley database routines (run-time fil ii netbase 3.18-4 Basic TCP/IP networking binaries --- Begin /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/postfix (modified conffile) Config file not present or no permissions for access --- End /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/postfix --- Begin /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/postfix (modified conffile) Config file not present or no permissions for access --- End /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/postfix --- Begin /etc/postfix/virtual (modified conffile) # # # # # # @switchsuper.com.au @switchonline.com.au --- End /etc/postfix/virtual

--- Begin Message ---This is a general smtp protocol divergence and nothing to do with postfix. The postfix documentation is not the place for documenting general smtp protocol warts or bugs in other implementations.
