Hi,
I have recently started using claws mail to manage my user sieve scripts using server dovecot-sieve_1%3a2.3.13+dfsg1-2_arm64.deb
I originally edited ~/.dovecot.sieve to hold my script and I recall that ~/.dovecot.svbin was automatically generated on first use. (either that or I have forgotten that I had used sievec)
Later I used claws mail to generate sieve scripts but they were written into directory
~/sieve/
In experimentation I changed ~/.dovecot.sieve into a link to my principal script ~/sieve/main.sieve
The oddity now is that sieve seems to be working when there is no compiled version
Should I expect a compiled .svbin version to be generated from claws client? Or generated by first run of the sieve server on the user account? Or should I manage the scripts with claws, but log in to the server later to generate the .svbin versions?
In any event what effect does not having a .svbin version have on typical small installation?
