Am I wrong in thinking that a sieve daemon should become active when dovecot starts?
There's supposed to be a daemon?
It seems it is my understanding that is lacking, not the daemon. I was thinking of the managesieve extension which is not available in Dovecot 1.0 yet, although there are patches out there it seems. My MTA (KMail) supports the managesieve extention but it wasn't until looking closer at my MTA that is occured to me that "managesieve" is distinct from "managing sieve". Mea culpa.
Here is my .dovecot.sieve
require "fileinto"; if address :is "from" "foo@example" { fileinto ".INBOX.test"; } else { # The rest goes into INBOX # default is "implicit keep", we do it explicitly here keep; }
Does .dovecot.sieve.err exist? I believe I tried something similar to that at first and had to change "from" to "From"
.dovecot.sieve.err does not exist.
I have .dovecot.sieve in my users home and in the Maildir folder but I am planning on having mostly virtual users with no account on the system.
-lrwxrwxrwx 1 USER users 38 2006-12-29 09:59 Mail
/home/myriapolis.net/mailboxes/USER
But mail just goes to INBOX instead of getting routed and no .dovecot.sieve.err is generated
Thank you for the help, Samir M. Nassar
