I'm trying to get the Sieve default delivery for "inbox" to go to a
directory in Maildir format, rather than a file.
Our system supports both Maildir and mbox being specified in .forward
files, so the redirect router that handles the filter files specifies
separate "file_transport" and "directory_transport" options, and which
one gets used depends on whether the filename ends with "/".
The documentation has an example of how to convert the "inbox" string
into a path:
https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_appendfile_transport.html#SECTfildiropt
file = ${if eq{$address_file}{inbox} \
{/var/mail/$local_part_data} \
{${if eq{${substr_0_1:$address_file}}{/} \
{$address_file} \
{$home/mail/$address_file} \
}} \
}
The problem I've got is that because "inbox" doesn't end in "/", it gets
handled by the "file_transport" transport, so I can't see how to then
deliver it to a directory.
Is there a way around this, either by forcing the string "inbox" to be
handled by the "directory_transport", or by having the "file_transport"
conditionally deliver to a directory?
