Enable interpolation of alias destinations
This patch modifies the virtual_alias_maps function so that the destination
address is parsed for the place holders %n, %d and %=, which are replaced with
the localpart, the domain or the full address with '@' replaced by '=' of the
queried key.
In combination with alias domains, this allows for domain-specific recipients.
E.g. given example.org and its alias domain example.com, defining an alias
postmaster@example.org → postmaster+%d@example.org
will cause mail to postmaster@example.*com* to go to
postmaster+example.*com*@example.org.
If you still have installed vmm 0.3.x you have to proceed this step first:
* upgrade your vmm installation to version 0.4-r41
If you have installed vmm 0.4/0.4-r41 you have to proceed this steps:
* stop Postfix and Dovecot
* backup/dump your database.
* backup/dump your database!
* start psql and connect to the appropriate database
(ex. psql mailsys mailsys vmm -W -h localhost)
* update the database: \i update_tables_0.4.x-0.5.pgsql
* GRANT SELECT ON postfix_alias TO postfix;
^^^^^^^^ <- your Postfix db user
Dovecot v1.2.x
-> Are you already using Dovecot v1.2.x?
* update the database for Dovecot v1.2.x:
\i update_tables_0.5.x_for_dovecot-1.2.x.pgsql
* GRANT SELECT ON dovecot_password TO dovecot;
^^^^^^^^ <- your Dovecot db user
* When you are using the SQL function »dovecotpassword()« in your
dovecot-sql.conf, update it also:
\i update_types_and_functions_0.5.x_for_dovecot-1.2.x.pgsql
* You have also to adjust the permissions of the set-uid deliver copy:
on BSD:
chgrp nobody /usr/local/lib/dovecot/deliver
on Linux:
chgrp nogroup /usr/local/lib/dovecot/deliver
chmod u+s,o-rwx /usr/local/lib/dovecot/deliver
* Check the master.cf from Postfix.
In prior setups the service dovecot was configured slightly different.
If you have set the command attribute 'user' to 'nobody:mail', so
either remove the group mail or replace it with the group nobody
or nogroup. (see command output from: id -ng nobody)
e.g.: flags=DRhu user=nobody argv=/usr/local/lib/dovecot/deliver …
* execute upgrade.sh
* start Dovecot and Postfix
If you have installed vmm 0.5.x:
* execute upgrade.sh
-> Are you already using Dovecot v1.2.x?
See a few lines above.
