This is cyrus-imap.2.2.8 with exim-4.41:

I had been using lmtp to do normal deliveries but deliver to deliver to specific folders (as for spam being diverted to a spam-folder.

I noticed in my exim logs that at busy times I was getting a few failures from the deliver program (logged as error code 75 or 65 by exim). Can someone tell me what these two codes mean?

On reflection I thought that I might be able to use lmtp to deliver to specific folders instead by using "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as the address. I tried this and it worked. An advantage of this is the benefit of multiple deliveries in one go.

However, I have now found a difference which it would be nice to remove:

Using deliver to deliver to "user.folder", if the folder does not exist, it delivers to the user's inbox. Using lmpt, if the folder does not exist, it rejects the message.

Is it possible to get lmtp to deliver to the inbox if the specified folder does not exist?

Either I'm confused or you're using the incorrect syntax. To deliver to a user-specific folder via LMTP, the address should be [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the folder doesn't exist (or doesn't allow posting by the [un]authenticated user, then the message *will* go to the user's INBOX.
