Re: [Dovecot] Using global und per-user sieve scripts at the same time

[Matthias Kellermann]

Hi list,

I'm still trying to get global and per-user sieve scripts to work. With
no success yet.

This is what I've got for the moment:

dovecot.conf
---
protocol lda {
  postmaster_address = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  fsync_disable = no
  mail_plugins = cmusieve quota
  mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lda
  sieve_global_path = /usr/local/etc/sieve/spam
  sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
  auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
}

plugin {
  sieve = /usr/mail/%Lu/sieve
}
---


/usr/local/etc/sieve/spam:
---
require fileinto;

if header :contains [Subject] [***Spam***] {
  fileinto Spam;
  stop;
}
---

If I enable sieve_global_path and sieve in plugin section only the user
sieve script is working. If I enable only the sieve_global_path setting
this one is working. Both at the same time won't work. Dovecot version
is 1.0.7.

Is there really a way to get this to work under Dovecot 1.0.7?

[Dovecot] Using global und per-user sieve scripts at the same time

[Matthias Kellermann]

Hi list,

I'm trying to get a global sieve mailfilter with per-user sieve scripts
to work.

At the lda-section in the dovecot.conf file I have:
global_script_path = /usr/local/etc/sieve/spam

/usr/local/etc/sieve/spam:
require fileinto;

if header :contains [Subject] [***Spam***] {
  fileinto Spam;
  stop;
}

which will work fine delivering Spam Mails in a Spam dir for every user.
If a user creates his own .dovecot.sieve file the global script will not
work anymore.

How can I enable global and local per-user sieve scripts at once? Is
this possible? Do you know any workaround so all users will have the
same (Spam-)sieve filters beside there own (global templates or so)?

Thanks for your answer Nikolay. But I think this won't do the trick.
This setting will override the global setting as well. At the moment I'm
using the default location for the sieve scripts in the user's home dir.

 Very strange but in my case global rules still works even if user have
 their own sieve rules. So spam still moved to junk folder ;).

Hmm, so you have an entry like this in your LDA section:

global_script_path = /usr/local/etc/sieve/spam

Where spam is the file with the global sieve rules. Then you have the
following entry in the plugin section:

sieve = /var/mail/store/%u/sieve

Where sieve ist the per-user sieve file, right? Is /var/mail/store the
same location where you save the user's email?

[Dovecot] sieve parse error

[Matthias Kellermann]

Hello everyone,

I'm using Dovecot (v1.0.beta3-3ubuntu5.4 under Ubuntu) with postfix and
LDA with virtual users. Everything is working fine.

To filter mails I use the Dovecot Sieve feature. But I get some strange
error for one simple Sieve script:


require fileinto;

if header :contains [to, Cc, Bcc] [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] {
fileinto Mailinglists.FreeWRT;
stop;
}

elseif header :contains [to, Cc, Bcc]
[[EMAIL PROTECTED]] {
fileinto Mailinglists.getmail;
stop;
}


This is the error I get in mail.log:


May  6 15:47:08 gehirnschnecke deliver: sieve parse error for
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: line 8: syntax error, unexpected IF, expecting '{'


After studying sieve.info my sieve script should be correct. What could
be wrong here?

Thanks  best regards
Matthias

 sieve has elsif .. not elseif

 Dunno if that is the problem, but:

   
 May  6 15:47:08 gehirnschnecke deliver: sieve parse error for
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: line 8: syntax error, unexpected IF, expecting '{'
 

 it seems to be the right line number.

 mm
   
That was the problem. Just one letter - mea culpa ..

Thanks
