Hi Paul,
So far I know this are shared folders. Is it possible to receive mail
directly in a shared folder? If yes: how?
The way to do it is to designate a "postuser" (most commonly "cyrus")
in Cyrus imapd.conf.
Then you can submit mails via SendMail or PostFix, via virtual users:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus+paul
Most commonly, though, people use "shared/..." hirearchy for shared
folders, so it would translte to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus+shared.paul
or [EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus+shared/paul (if you are using
UNIX hierarchy separator).
I've a mailbox user.paul and a folder "user.paul.postbank". When I send
a message to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" the message comes in my
inbox, and not in the folder "postbank".
I've also tried in /etc/postfix/virtual:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] paul+postbank
But it does not help.
I am using Cyrus 2.1 what comes with Debian.
The soulution may be - as Rudy already wrote - the recipient delimiter
setting (in case you use deliver) or wrong permissions in your Cyrus
setup - if the posting user (Postfix is just a user to Cyrus, too) has
no permission to post messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED], it
will fall back to user.paul@ in order not to fail delivery completely.
So make sure, the user you use for delivery has post permissions (I
think lmtpd writes the username in the logs, so have a look there).
