Hi Cam,
I suffered something similar during my migration and an old post
somewhere saved the day for me: https://skeletor.org.ua/?p=2497
I hope it helps you too.
It was worth a try, and at least has changed the focus to Exim from
Dovecot: the existing lookups for identifying user@domain in Exim are
not working. What he has is not significantly different from my own
setup.
Thank you for the link
As it turned out, the problem lay partly with both. For some reason,
Dovecot 2.3 would accept and properly deliver an email when
/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver had no flags set. Dovecot 2.4 does not seem to
like that. The problem then became how to properly express $localpart
and $domain, since they need to be de-tainted. The solution comes from
this URL:

Setting up macros and using them to generate the appropriate variables
did the trick.
Thanks to JimBob McGee
Cam
