OK, so from the responses its obvious I had a flawed expectation... not
the first time, thats for sure.

Hmmm... I'm now wondering if ${extension} can somehow be used with the
virtual_mailbox_maps query to accomplish what I want?

I want to be able to use plussed addresses in such a way that if such a
message comes in and a subfolder matches the extension, the message will
be delivered to that subfolder, and if there is no matching subfolder,
it is just delivered to the Inbox.

Obviously (also judging from the replies so far), the postfix DA's don't
support adding flags to accomplish this, like you can with the dovecot
LDA master.cf entry. So, an obvious follow-up would be, is there a
reason postfix's DAs don't support this? I'm not complaining, just
asking... :)

It would be nice if the postfix local and/or virtual DA master.cf
entries allowed the addition of these flags to be able to do this...

I guess in this situation I'll have to wait until I have converted to
dovecot so I can use its LDA...

Anyway, thanks for the replies...
