You mean the +detail you can add to an e-mail address, as in [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? That should just work. It's generally supported within sendmail.cf so long as you configure a local mailer that can handle it -- in your case 'FEATURE(local_procmail)' will be sufficient. One exception in the .mc file: the +detail stuff is not preserved when looking up an address in aliases or .forward files unless you add FEATURE(preserve_local_plus_detail) Otherwise, you will need to make provisions in genericstable and virtusertable to support it: genericstable -- you need both of these lines: john j.doe john+* j.doe+%1 virtusertable -- '+' is a wildcard match character, and you end up with %2 containing 'detail' and %3 containing '+detail', so you can do: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] which also covers the case where no +detail is given.
