Thanks for your comment. So far as I understand it, yes. From the dovecot documentation:
"Pigeonhole binaries, which provide support for the Sieve language and ManageSieve protocol in Dovecot, were included starting with Debian Wheezy
The packages for Debian are installed with: apt-get install dovecot-sieve dovecot-managesieved"
Those packages are installed on my server:
root@mx:~# aptitude search pigeonhole root@mx:~# aptitude search dovecot-sieve i A dovecot-sieve - secure POP3/IMAP server - Sieve filters su root@mx:~# aptitude search dovecot-managesieved i dovecot-managesieved - secure POP3/IMAP server - ManageSieve serv root@mx:~#
Best regards, Martin
