I understand that technical issue, but what I wanted was a possible solution
based on plain usernames.
This is because I want to make the transition from dbmail to dovecot completely
transparent to users and
clients, and dbmail just uses plain login names, indepentend of what e-Mail
alias would then in dbmail be
mapped to which login name.
The plain solution above now works completely transparent for IMAP with
dovecot, and it is also documented
in the wiki that dovecot is domain agnostic. That is great news for my setup.
Where I am very flexible is delivering mail: I could use dovecot-lda or
dovecot-lmtpd, or postfix doing the
work itself or whatever. It is just that I did not find any solution, and this
is why I was asking for help
here.
So, is there a way for dovecot-{lda/lmtpd} to accept "[email protected]" but
checks for "user1" in the user
DB?
If there is some other idea, I would be happy to hear about it.
Thank you, again,
