Additional regexp aliases can be configured by placing them into `docker-data/dms/config/postfix-regexp.cf`. The regexp aliases get evaluated after the virtual aliases (container path: `/tmp/docker-mailserver/postfix-virtual.cf`). For example, the following `docker-data/dms/config/postfix-regexp.cf` causes all email sent to "test" users to be delivered to `qa@example.com` instead:

Postfix supports so-called address tags, in the form of plus (+) tags - i.e. `address+tag@example.com` will end up at `address@example.com`. This is configured by default and the (configurable !) separator is set to `+`. For more info, see [How to use Address Tagging (`user+tag@example.com`) with Postfix](https://www.stevejenkins.com/blog/2011/03/how-to-use-address-tagging-usertagexample-com-with-postfix/) and the [official documentation](http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#recipient_delimiter).

docs(refactor): Large refactor + additions + fixes Consistency pass, formatting cleanup and fixes, introduce admonitions, add front-matter. --- docs: Add front-matter --- docs: Fix and format links - Some links were invalid (eg files moved or renamed) - Some were valid but had invalid section headers (content removed or migrated) - Some use `http://` instead of `https://` when the website supports a secure connection. - Some already used the `[name][reference]` convention but often with a number that wasn't as useful for maintenance. - All referenced docs needed URLs replaced. Opted for the `[name][reference]` approach to group them all clearly at the bottom of the doc, especially with the relative URLs and in some cases many duplicate entries. - All `tomav` references from the original repo prior to switch to an organization have been corrected. - Minor cosmetic changes to the `name` part of the URL, such as for referencing issues to be consistent. - Some small changes to text body, usually due to duplicate URL reference that was unnecessary (open relay, youtous) - Switched other links to use the `[name][reference]` format when there was a large group of URLs such as wikipedia or kubernetes. Github repos that reference projects related to `docker-mailserver` also got placed here so they're noticed better by maintainers. This also helped quite a bit with `mermaid` external links that are very long. - There was a Github Wiki supported syntax in use `[[name | link]]` for `fetchmail` page that isn't compatible by default with MkDocs (needs a plugin), converted to `[name][reference]` instead since it's a relative link. --- docs: Update commit link for LDAP override script Logic moved to another file, keeping the permalink commit reference so it's unaffected by any changes in the file referenced in future. --- docs: Heading corrections Consistency pass. Helps with the Table of Contents (top-right UI) aka Document Outline. docs: codefence cleanup --- docs: misc cleanup --- docs: Add Admonitions Switches `<details>` usage for collapsible admonitions (`???`) while other text content is switched to the visually more distinct admoniton (`!!!` or `???+`) style. This does affect editor syntax highlighting a bit and markdown linting as it's custom non-standard markdown syntax.

If you do decide to change the configurable separator, you must add the same line to *both* `docker-data/dms/config/postfix-main.cf` and `docker-data/dms/config/dovecot.cf`, because Dovecot is acting as the delivery agent. For example, to switch to `-`, add:
