Hello!
Is it possible with sieve to do the following: When a new message is added to a folder (e.g. dovecot folder and not INBOX) then an action like forwarding it per E-Mail should be triggered.
Is this possible? If yes, how does the sieve script look like?
If you want to do this using Sieve through IMAP (i.e. when appending new messages): currently no. There is work in progress to produce an IMAP extension that allows setting such scripts for specific folders and operations on those folders. This is nowhere near finished however and implementing this is not trivial.
If possible, can a shell script also be triggered as action?
Not with Sieve. Perhaps there is a plugin for IMAP that allows triggering shell scripts when accessing certain folders, but I really wouldn't know.
PS: if you are trying to build a spam learning folder: there is a plugin for that called antispam.
BTW, the antispam plugin is ready for dovecot 1.2?
