Re: [Dovecot] Put existing mails (in Maildir) through sieve filter?

Andreas,

You can write a shell script to do this for you.

cd ~/Maildir/cur

for i in *; do /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d user < $i; rm -f $i; echo "Message $i"; done

it would be safer to move the messages to another directory before running the loop, and moving the delivrered ones to another dir instead of deleting them.

cd ~/Maildir mkdir todo mkdir done cp cur/* todo for i in todo/*; do echo "Delivering message $i ..." /path/to/deliver -d user < $i && mv $i done/ done
