Yes. I already have Postfix set up to send a copy of all incoming messages to an archival Dovecot mail server. This was rather easy to do since I have Postfix deliver all inbound messages to a shell script that queues the message in a Redis queue and then sends the message to the archive. But, my issue is capturing all IMAP saved messages (via IMAP APPEND command). Is there any way to “hook” into the APPEND action to send a copy of the message to the archival Dovecot mail server? I’d really like to just post-process the APPENDED messages with a shell script that is similar to my Postfix shell script (that queues to Redis and sends to the archive). How do I configure Dovecot IMAP for this use case?
