Sieve is a plugin of the dovecot delivery agent, and gets executed upon delivery. It does exactly what you want to implement with "deliver -m" in Postfix, which sounds cumbersome indeed. Read http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve/CMU for info. I am not familiar with Ubuntu specifics, but iirc Stephan Bosch (creator of sieve plugin) has a repo with debian builds of dovecot+sieve. -- Regards, Tom
