Okay thanks.
I guess what I would like is to preserve the suffixes that were received
for each address, and then append them to the final recipient addresses at
transport time.
Right now I have four redirect routers for local domains, which are
/etc/aliases, LDAP aliases, LDAP groups, and finally LDAP users as the
ultimate recipient addresses. These currently redirect the messages to
generic file, generic pipe, or Cyrus LMTP, but I will add more transport
mechanisms later.
I've tried setting the rcpt_include_affixes option on the Cyrus LMTP
transport definition but it doesn't seem to do anything, presumably
because the original address has been replaced during routing.
Thanks
