[Dovecot] dovecot-sieve and LMT

Dear list,

My mail server is working perfectly. So I am trying to add feature after feature, until I have all the features I need. This has worked fine until now. I am trying to get dovecot-sieve to work. So I activated dovecot-lda and the sieve plugin and told postfix to use deliver instead of procmail. After restarting all services I then created a test sieve file. Obviously I have not yet understood the whole process completely because, it simply does not work.

I suspect some permission problems or misconfiguration of the sieve file, but I am not sure where to look for solutions.



-rw-r--r-- 1 2001 2001 116 2012-06-16 21:25 /var/mail/vmail/domain.com/user/dovecot.sieve

dovecot.sieve
require "fileinto";
if header :contains ["subject"] ["Test"] {
  fileinto ".Folder1";
} else {
  fileinto ".Folder2";
}

Of course Folder1 and Folder2 do exist. (/var/mail/vmail/domain.com/user/mail/.Folder1 and Folder2)

As far as I can tell there are no errors reported anywhere, I checked mail.log and syslog. 2001 is the virtual uid/gid of this particular user.

If anyone can help me with this it would be great. The Mailserver works very well apart from this.

There was one odd thing apart from this. In the docs I read that auth-master has to be running for deliver to work correctly. I did not know this before, but mails were delivered correctly after I started using deliver. So is there a need for auth-master to be running or not?

Thanks a lot
Martin
