All mail that is delivered to the same mailbox has the same Delivered-To: address. Postfix local/pipe/virtual delivery agents record the original recipient in the X-Original-To: header. That is, the recipient address before alias processing and forwarding. You can embed the original recipient as an extension to the final recipient address, if you must insist on using the Delivered-To: header.

Re[2]: Incoming mail archiving with Postfix
Wietse, thank you, > Postfix local/pipe/virtual delivery agents record the delivered > to address in the Delivered-To: header Then, in which way would you recommend to copy such a message to special arch...@mydomain mailbox, retaining Delivered-To: header? (and not replacing it with "arch...@mydomain", to allow further sorting) Is it possible to do it with Postfix? I guess this can be done with Dovecot LDA + Sieve, by storing Delivered-To: into some other header and redirecting message to archive mailbox, but that doesnt' seem to be very elegant.

Incoming mail archiving with Postfix
Hi, I need to archive all incoming mail for my virtual domains (by copying mail to dedicated archive mailbox) and then sort it according to address it has been delivered to. One major drawback of existing milter-based solutions, as well as of virtual aliasing and BCC maps, is that in some cases neither "To:" header nor envelope-to contain actual recipient address. This can be the case of our local (virtual) address receiving forwarded mail from outside, or delivery address being result of address rewrite or alias expansion. In either case, we state that the actual delivery address is known only since the moment of virtual transport invocation (right?). In my case pipe(8) to Dovecot LDA is used as virtual transport. The question is, how do I organize mail copying simultaneously with virtual transport invocation (delivery), and how do I pass actual delivery address to mail archival system? This can be some message header or "plus" address. Thank you! Zohan
