How do we start troubleshooting this?
deliver(user@example.com): Aug 12 18:27:19 Error: Sendmail process terminated abnormally, exit status 70
deliver(user@example.com): Aug 12 18:27:19 Info: sieve runtime error: Vacation: Error sending mail
deliver(user@example.com): Aug 12 18:27:19 Info: msgid=48A20E3C.7070307@example.com: saved mail to INBOX
deliver(user@example.com): Aug 12 18:27:19 Error: sieve_execute_bytecode(/var/vmail/example.com/user//Home/.dovecot.sievec) failed
It seems to only choke on the vacation portion. It creates entries in the ".dovecot.lda-dupes" file. But then dies while sending the reply e-mail.
The contents of the user's .dovecot.sieve file is:
require ["fileinto", "include", "vacation"];
# Move spam to spam folder if exists "X-Spam-Flag" { fileinto "spam"; # Stop here so that we do not reply on spams stop; }
include :personal "sieve-vacation";
And the "" file looks like:
require ["vacation"];
vacation
# Reply at most once a day to a same sender :days 1
:subject "Out of office reply"
# List of recipient addresses which are included in the auto replying. # If a mail's recipient is not on this list, no vacation reply is sent for it. :addresses "user@example.com"
"blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah, user@example.com";
If I comment out the "include :personal "sieve-vacation";" line, then it works, but obviously not the vacation portion. Deliver does at least not die horribly.
I get the same error if I move the content of the vacation include file into the main ".dovecot.sieve" file.

I'm not finding any AVC errors in the SELinux audit.log file. And I'm not sure what other switches I can turn on to get better error information as to what sendmail/deliver are choking on in this virtual (setuid) environment where we use Dovecot as the LDA.
