Hi All, I cannot get the sieve_before to work. I have dovecot & sieve
installed on Debian 7 as follows /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-sieve.conf : plugin { # The path to the user's main active script. If ManageSieve is used, this the # location of the symbolic link controlled by ManageSieve. sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve # The default Sieve script when the user has none. This is a path to a global # sieve script file, which gets executed ONLY if user's private Sieve script # doesn't exist. Be sure to pre-compile this script manually using the sievec # command line tool. # --> See sieve_before fore executing scripts before the user's personal # script. sieve_default = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve # Directory for :personal include scripts for the include extension. This # is also where the ManageSieve service stores the user's scripts. sieve_dir = ~/sieve/ # Directory for :global include scripts for the include extension. sieve_global_dir = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/ # Path to a script file or a directory containing script files that
need to be # executed before the user's script. If the path points to a directory, all # the Sieve scripts contained therein (with the proper .sieve extension) are # executed. The order of execution within a directory is determined by the # file names, using a normal 8bit per-character comparison. Multiple script # file or directory paths can be specified by appending an increasing number. sieve_before = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before #####sieve_before2 = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before/default2.sieve #sieve_before3 = (etc...) # Identical to sieve_before, only the specified scripts are executed
after the # user's script (only when keep is still in effect!). Multiple script file or # directory paths can be specified by appending an increasing number. #sieve_after = #sieve_after2 = #sieve_after2 = (etc...) # Which Sieve language extensions are available to users. By default, all # supported extensions are available, except for deprecated extensions or # those that are still under development. Some system administrators may want # to disable certain Sieve extensions or enable those that are not available # by default. This setting can use '+' and '-' to specify
differences relative # to the default. For example `sieve_extensions = +imapflags' will enable the # deprecated imapflags extension in addition to all extensions were already # enabled by default. #sieve_extensions = +notify +imapflags .................................

Hi Ger,

sieve_before should be a path to sieve script file, not to a directory. in your configuration, you set sieve_before to /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before which is a directory.

what you need to do is figure out which sieve script you'd like to execute and its path rather. If you think that default2.sieve is the right script then

set sieve_before to /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before/default2.sieve

Well spotted Robert, I didn't know that. It also says here https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Usage#scriptcompile that one must be aware of permission issues with auto-compiled scripts : if the system user used by sieve to compile the script doesn't have write access to the directory where the script lives then it can't write the compiled version in that location. This is why one should consider pre-compiling scripts himself to make sure the compiled version is written to disk

As mentionned in the link you gave :

"IMPORTANT: Be sure to manually pre-compile the scripts specified by sieve_before and sieve_after using the sievec tool, as explained here."

I notice you are creating a sieve directory in /home/ as if it was a system user, then you change ownership to vmail. I would create the sieve directory directly in /home/vmail or whatever $HOME vmail user has (mine is /var/vmail). But that's just my particular taste :)

I picked this up years ago from another howto. Lots of pieces of his work, I am reworking. I can see your point. I t puts all the mail related stuff into /home/vmail for backups, rather than the /home backup. I would have to change managesieve the same so that user sieves go there too. No big deal.

Must think on this.

ownership may also have been the issue, but we will no know what the
permissions were before you changed them.

I would have tried

chown -R vmail:mail /var/lib/dovecot

Where vmail:mail is the user:group dovecot is running with. This is
how I do it.

Hi Yassine, That did not work, is there a way to see is the script is been run?

Perhaps it is an SELinux permissions problem? Try setenforce 0 to see?

Hi Ger,

sieve_before should be a path to sieve script file, not to a directory. in your configuration, you set sieve_before to
/var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before which is a directory.

what you need to do is figure out which sieve script you'd like
to execute and its path rather. If you think that default2.sieve is the right script then set
sieve_before to /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/before/default2.sieve
