Ok, then I'll post here.
I asked because it is only now, after three weeks of trying to understand Sieve and how to filter spam out, that I realised that one needs a separate programme to enable Sieve in Dovecot. I had thought that it was included in Dovecot ,abd one only had to enable a plugin reference in the dovecot.conf. Because another programme has to be installed, I had thought that it was not part of Dovecot proper, and would need to be addressed to another list. I know that I shall run into Sieve related config problems, but did not want to burden this list with these.
However, I compiled Dovecot Sieve and installed it into the default of /usr/local, and it looks like I have a second installation of Dovecot :( I downloaded Sieve from wget http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.16.tar.gz. Looks like the install guide I found that said to install Sieve had a typo' and the URL was for the whole of Dovecot.
i) Does anyone know where I can download Dovecot Sieve from?
ii) Is there a way of removing all the files I installed from the previous 'make instal'l I did? I tried a 'make uninstall', but this did not remove everything.I know this looks compleatly braindead to anyone else reading this list... myself included ... buts too late ( in both cases ). Question ii) has been solved ( I think ) : cd /usr/local; find | grep dovecot > /tmp/a; for i in
cat /tmp/a; do rm -r $i;done Seems to have worked!
