Using To-Header for envelope address

Hi together,

I am new to getmail and struggling with an setup for multiple clients.
I selected the MultidropIMAPRetriever. Incoming mails are collected with
an catchall-address for the whole domain.

The example suggests Delivered-To:1 as envelope_recipient. But in my
case this always contains the Catchall-Address, so I tried to use the
To: header.
getmail then stops with an error: the to header field does not record
the envelope recipient address

Why is it not allowed to use the To: header? Seems a legit option to me.

Other questions I stumbled over:
- is StartSSL supported?
- can I use regex groups in locals? Something like ("(.*)@domain.com", [\1])

My current configuration is attached. Thank you for any help.

Best regards

Robert Schönherr
