Thanks for the fast two answers both pointing me to setting the postfix
parameter "recipient_delimiter=+".
Id did so and now postfix does NOT stop the message with an error.
But the message was not delivered to the adressed folder but to the 
to level INBOX of the user.
According to the postfix log it was not rewritten just passed via lmtp to Cyrus.

Do I have to configure Cyrus too to know who to interpret "+"?
Any ideas?

Thanks & cheers
Thomas
