I'm using dovecot 2.1 with native auth-vpopmail. With 1.2 native 
auth-vpopmail have some limits.

My idea is to run dovecot-lda like:

/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d $EXT@$HOST -m $Extension

where if original recipient is [email protected] Extension is 
"lists", but in vpopmail environment how is called "Extension" (if is 
present)?

Thanks
