I posted the active lines in my hostname.mc. With that being said, your question of: "> Do you have some Cw lines in sendmail.cf? Maybe OSTYPE(freebsd) "> adds them. "> For instance, there is always a Cwlocalhost line in my .cf file. Has been answered. Please continue to help us find out why the following: Mdovecot, P=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver, F=DFMPhnu9, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromSMTP, R=EnvToSMTP/HdrFromSMTP, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, A=deliver -d $u If you're using sendmail.mc then put the lines above into a new file /usr/share/sendmail/cf/mailer/dovecot.m4 and put MAILER(dovecot) into your sendmail.mc is not working for us. The above can be found on: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail

You are correct. Allow me to provide just a little more detail.
We're assuming that dovecot.confs' 'Mail_location:' has nothing to do
with the MTA handing off to the 'deliver' LDA. With that being said, no
matter what the dovecot.confs' 'mail_location:' is set to, and with:
/usr/share/sendmail/cf/mailer/dovecot.m4 containing the following:
Mdovecot, P=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver, F=DFMPhnu9,
S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromSMTP, R=EnvToSMTP/HdrFromSMTP,
T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=deliver -d $u
in addition to hostname.mc containing:
MAILER(local)
MAILER(smtp)
MAILER(dovecot)
--or containing --
MAILER(smtp)
MAILER(dovecot)
the local mailer continues to handle and send the mail to
/var/mail/. Yes we did create another hostname.cf. :=)

The mail is not delivered to the ~/Maildir; mail continues to get

First thing first, if you're reading this section/msg of the original thread,
please return to the initial/first message. To the author (SM
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
who offered the response about sendmails' local-host-names, how did
you arrive at this? What does sendmails local-host-names have to do
with local delivery once the MTA accepts the mail <-- perhaps that's
a bit off-topic for this thread.
The MTA (sendmail) generally accepts the mail and then passes it to
the LDA if the recipient domain is listed in local-host-names or is
in class {w}. In this case, the LDA used should be Dovecot's
deliver. However, it won't work for local delivery, hence the
mailertable hack.
You mentioned that mail is being delivered but the steps at
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail don't work for you. As you have
not provided any log extracts, I can only assume that sendmail is
calling the LDA defined by local MAILER to deliver mail to the
/var/mail/ mbox even though Dovecot's mail_location is set
to maildir:~/Maildir only.

Re: [Dovecot] TECRA-A9 -- devcot LDA/sendmail
Re: [Dovecot] TECRA-A9 -- devcot LDA/sendmai The mail is not delivered to the ~/Maildir; mail continues to get delivered to /var/mail/. First thing first, if you're reading this section/msg of the original thread, please return to the initial/first message. To the author (SM <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) who offered the response about sendmails' local-host-names, how did you arrive at this? What does sendmails local-host-names have to do with local delivery once the MTA accepts the mail <-- perhaps that's a bit off-topic for this thread. NO disrespect intended to -- SM <[EMAIL PROTECTED] In any case I had a strong feeling the resolve offered from SM <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> would'nt work and it didn't, but I can say "that I tried it". With that being said, would someone please return to the first message in this thread and provide an authoritive resolve to my issues; if powssible.

Ofcourse, until I get the aforementioned functioning, I'm unable to experience the Dovecot-sieve. Sendmail is performing a local delivery instead of invoking deliver. Remove the domain names from local-host-names. Regards, -sm
