"The  dovecot-lda is a local mail delivery agent"

       -a address

           Destination address (e.g. user+ext@domain). If not specified, default is based on the lda_original_recipient_header setting setting.

       -f envelope_sender

           Envelope sender address. If not specified and message data begins with a valid mbox-style "From " line, the address is taken from it.

       -d username

           Destination username. If given, the user information is looked up from userdb. Typically used with virtual  users,  but  not  necessarily
           with system users.


I have had two one for real and one for virtual users:
command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -e -f $sender_address_data -a $original_local_part@$original_domain
command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -e -d $local_part -f $sender_address_data -a $original_local_part@$original_domain

The one for virtual users is even more tricky as local_part_data seems
to be empty...

The point is, I already check the local_part with
{bool{${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/exim/domains/$domain_data/delivery}{true}{false}}}}.

I don't know if that works with dovecot.

I need the dovecot transport as I have sieve and managesieve in use
which is done by dovecot. Other from that I have virtual users under a
separate path.

Regards
