I have an *Ubuntu 16.04* mail server with postfix/spamassassin/*dovecot-2.2.2**2* with virtual mailboxes in maildir format. The whole process is working excellently since a year. Spams are marked with "*****SPAM*****" in subject and with "X-Spam-Flag: YES" in email header.
I tried now to add sieve to dovecot to move the SPAM messages into the Junk folder without any success, I don't see any sign that sieve does something at all. The output of "dovecot -n":
# 2.2.22 (fe789d2): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.13 (7b14904) # OS: Linux 4.4.0-72-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS ext4 auth_mechanisms = cram-md5 auth_verbose = yes base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info log_path = /var/log/dovecot log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } plugin { sieve = /etc/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/auth unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } user = root } service imap-login { chroot = login executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login inet_listener imap { port = 0 } user = dovecot } service imap { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/imap } service pop3-login { chroot = login executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } user = dovecot } service pop3 { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } valid_chroot_dirs = /var/spool/vmail protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" }
I've added only plugin and protocol lda now. The content of the file default.sieve:
require "fileinto"; if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "Junk"; }
The test SPAM message is marked as SPAM, but not moved to the folder Junk. I don't see anything in mail.log that is associated to sieve.:

What can be wrong?
