Hello,
I want to use timsieved to upload sieve scripts and it shall be nice
if the users do not necessary have to exist.
Motivation: On my system I have very few users with mailboxes and lots
of mail aliases (virtual accounts with password, without mailbox). I
want to develop a milter (=sendmail filter) extension, which provides
the users the ability to manage their mail, even without having a
local mailbox. (The main purpose is to stop the spam if the users want
to, and to make smtp-rejects, instead of bounces).
The easiest way would be to allow the users, who can successfully
authenticate towards cyrus-imap, to upload scripts with timsieved,
even if they don't have a local mailbox, in the same way, as the users
wihout mailbox are able to authenticate towards the imap-process.
Ideally this functionality shall be offered as an option in cyrus.imap
or imap.conf .
Thanks for your attention (and hopefully understanding),
Dilian
