Hello Martin,
Wow. That was indeed the problem. I have been staring at that small script for a week and I just couldn't see it. I even had a friend look at it and he couldn't find it either. I feel a bit ridiculous now.
Making the handling/reporting of unterminated quoted strings better has been on my list for a while now. You're the first to actually complain about it so far. :)
The main problem is that Sieve quoted strings are allowed to contain newlines, which means that a string doesn't necessarily end before the end of the line.
Regards,
Stephan.

Hi Steven,
OK a on closer inspection :)
You are missing a closing double quote on line 59:
fileinto :create "Lists/Debain/News;
should be:
fileinto :create "Lists/Debain/News";
Best Regards

Hey martin,
Thanks for the reply! I made the changes you suggested but I got the same results.
According to my understanding, #header "from" "person@example.com"# is correct for an exact match.

Hi Steven,
I think you may be missing the :contains from the two header lines below:
if anyof (header "From" "store-news@amazon.com", envelope :contains "From" "menswearhouse.com", envelope :contains "From" "officedepot.com", envelope :contains "From" "walgreens.com", header "From" "promo@email.newegg.com") { fileinto :create "Promo"; stop;
if anyof (header :contains "From" "store-news@amazon.com", envelope :contains "From" "menswearhouse.com", envelope :contains "From" "officedepot.com", envelope :contains "From" "walgreens.com", header :contains "From" "promo@email.newegg.com") { fileinto :create "Promo"; stop;
Hope that helps
Best Regards
Martin

Hello! I hope you will forgive my ignorance but I have a problem I have been trying to solve for a week and I'm not sure where else to turn.
I'm trying to write a sieve script to sort all of my mail. I was writing this script to replace the one I am currently using but I can't seem to get it to compile. I don't know a lot about sieve or really scripting of any kind and I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
The compiler just puts out a bunch of output that doesn't make sense. like "unexpected character" when I know the character works there because I am already running a script with some of the same lines.
I'm attaching the script with some names and addresses changed and the sieve output to this email.
I would greatly appreciate any help anyone could offer.
