Re: plus addressing issues (puremessage followup question)

[Laurent Larquère]

Hi
have you played with the OperatorChars option in sendmail ?
by default it contains the "+" separator :
O OperatorChars=.:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[]+
try to remove it ...

Andrew,

No dice.  Didn't break anything, but didn't fix the issue either.

Good suggestions though, thanks!  I guess we'll just have to continue
handling quarantine manually....

So does anyone in the group have any suggestions for completely
disabling plus address handling in the cyrusv2 mailer, or anything
else that might alleviate my puremessage quarantine release woes?  I
do _not_ need [EMAIL PROTECTED] functionality, or
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or any of that to work.  We don't use that
stuff at all and never plan to.  I just would like sendmail to be able
to handle plus addresses as though it was using a typical delivery
agent.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Probably not an answer at all, but...

if you were using postfix instead of sendmail I would be able to tell
you that you can disable the delimiter '+' in the configuration files of
the postfix application.

Since you are not using postfix, I can only suggest that you might look
at disabling the delimiter in the sendmail application.  That will force
the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be rejected rather than processed
to [EMAIL PROTECTED].
      

Paul,
  I think you want to look at turning off "preserve_local_plus_detail" in
your sendmail configuration.  See:
  http://www.sendmail.org/m4/features.html#preserve_local_plus_detail
for details.  I would strongly recommend testing this before using it in
production, since I'm not sure what else turning this off will do.
  A line like:
define(`_PRESERVE_LOCAL_PLUS_DETAIL_', 0)
after the line that defines cyrus2 as your local mailer in your mc file
certainly seems to take out plussed-user support.
  Hope this helps, but if it eats all of your email and causes your server
to disapparate, my employer and I are not liable. :)
