Hi again everyone,
So I've finally got sieve integration happening on my REHL Postfix/Dovecot server, with private user scripts happily running when users create them. (we user SquirrelMail, so the avelsieve plugin runs the sieve integration).
Now I'd like to utilise additional per-user scripts (probably via sieve_before), but I've not been able to get my additional scripts to execute.
I am doing the following: a) getting avelsieve to write my redirect script (ie. logging on as user, completing private script wizard, and activating it) b) compiling .dovecot.sieve with sievec c) copying the resultant .dovecot.svbin to sieve/ directory (and renaming it eg redirect.svbin
still, it appears that each /home/%u/.dovecot.sieve file is the only one taking effect. Any thoughts on how to make the other ones active? (The idea behind this is to automatically forward all of joeuser@mydomain's incoming mail to somewhere like joeusersbackup@gmail.com, for backup reasons. One day, I'll work out how to configure postfix to do this for all outgoing email too, but that's for another day :)
Below are what my .conf files look like. Thanks in advance,
Scott

sieve_before and sieve_after are directories where extra scripts are run sequentially before user scripts and after user scripts. See:
