Can only enable Sieve scripts not edit them (Roundcube)
Hello,
(my first post so be gentle)
I will be posting this to the Roundcube mailing list too, but thought it worth asking here as well.
I have a Roundcube installation running Apache with Dovecot and Sieve.
When logged in to Roundcube, a user can see the Sieve scripts and enable or disable them but NOT edit them or create new scripts.
In other words, Dovecot will happily EDIT the script to mark it as 'false' but will not edit the actual rules or create a new rule...
e.g.
require ["fileinto","vacation"]; # rule:[Out of Office] if false # true { vacation :days 1 :addresses "me@mydomain.com" :subject "Out of Office" :from "me@mydomain.com" "I am out of the office."; } # rule:[Spam] if header :contains "subject" "{Spam}" { fileinto "Spam"; }
Any ideas?
Thanks,

There is a roundcube plugin to edit/create sieve rules, but it has some serious limitations (as I discovered when I let it loose on my nested if statements). I use the "sieverules" plugin. It works much like many of MUA tools to filter things into folders, you select the header you want to filter by, the content the filter is applied to, and where you want it to go ... in all it's fairly basic. You might want to look into other tools to edit your sieve rules, I haven't looked into other web based sieve editors, but either VIM, or the "managesieve" plugin to "claws-mail" are what I use.
In other words, Dovecot will happily EDIT the script to mark it as 'false' but will not edit the actual rules or create a new rule...
Dovecot doesn't actually edit your sieve rules, you do that via an outside method (text editor, MUA plugin ...)

If it's feasible for you, try the 1.3-RC. Many improvements in the Sieve plugin (and other areas).
hope this helps,
Doug

Hi Doug,
Weirdly, a reboot fixed it.
