I have Thunderbird with all these test accounts set up. I doublechecked the second address, it is OK and when I write to this email directly it arrives to the right inbox.
If I connect with "telnet localhost 25" sitting in the mail server console and write during the session: "rcpt to:<[email protected]" it says: "250 2.1.5 Destination address valid: Recipient ok" I get the same result if I use an external address instead of [email protected] in a sieve rule. I can email to any external address directly but redirecting via sieve to that same address fails with the same error in the log. Btw, I already set up redirection by means of OpenSMTPD with SRS and it works. But now I would like to have the similar functionality available to a mail user as a user.
