It's not that bad. Aaron has been working on it steadily, if slowly. It's the libsieve-2.3+ code that appears to be on hold. > > Is the plan to keep dbmail using libsieve for the sieve support or is there > an alternate approach being discussed?

One possible alternative would be the sieve implementation from the gnu-mail-utils package. But I haven't really looked into it yet. I did one bugfix on libsieve which was merged by Aaron. For dbmail-2.3+ we do need the reentrantsafe libsieve Aaron has been working on, since lmtp in 2.3+ is event-driven (even when single-threaded). -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl _______________________________________________ Dbmail-dev mailing list Dbmail-dev@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail-dev
