Thank you Stephan,
I found log location with the command you have suggested.
From the log I understood, that I have not Enabled my uploaded sieve script (by checking the active radio button in my claws-mail sieve client).
Sieve is now working

Hello,
I am using Exim with this delivery configuration:
virtual_delivery: driver = pipe command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f ...
I have enabled manage-sieve and uploaded a simple sieve script that I can see on the server.
man page of /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver says it supports sieve.
Mail debug is enabled:
$ dovecot -n | grep debug mail_debug = yes
Delivering a mail shows only this line in dovecot log:
Jan 21 17:38:51 myserver dovecot: lda(joe@something.com): msgid=<20170121183537.7313f219@homenetwork>: saved mail to INBOX
According to page http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Troubleshooting#Sieve_Scripts_are_... I should have a log saying that the sieve plugin is loaded
Here is the sieve relevant parts of dovecot -n:
# 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ... plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } ... protocols = " imap sieve pop3 sieve" ... protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" }
Is there a requirement to use delivery via service (unix socket) so that sieve is enabled?
Or is there a configuration thing I forgot ?
Not really. But I do notice you're executing deliver rather than dovecot-lda. Usually, one is a symlink to the other though, so it should not matter. But, still best change that to rule out problems related to that.
It should at least be showing debug messages from LDA itself. It may be logging debug messages elsewhere though (
sudo doveadm log find).You can also try to execute /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda manually:
/usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -olog_path=/dev/stderr -p /path/to/test/message.eml
This should print all logging to stderr. You may need to add a -d <user> argument to select an appropriate user (an it may need to be run as root). Refer to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA for reference.
Regards,
Stephan.
