Hi all,

According to the docs at https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve, some extensions are not available by default.

The docs tell me the sieve_plugins, sieve_extensions and/or sieve_global_extensions configs are involved, but I can find no authoritative documentation as to what the values should be.

What values must I use to make “vnd.dovecot.environment” available?

Adding "sieve_global_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.environment” to 90-sieve.conf seems to not be enough.

[root@gatekeeper ~]# sievec -D /var/lib/dovecot-sieve/default.sieve sievec(root): Debug: sieve: Pigeonhole version 0.5.8 (b7b03ba2) initializing sievec(root): Debug: sieve: include: sieve_global is not set; it is currently not possible to include :global' scripts. sievec(root): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using Sieve script path: /var/lib/dovecot-sieve/default.sieve sievec(root): Debug: sieve: file script: Opened script default' from /var/lib/dovecot-sieve/default.sieve' default: line 5: error: require command: unknown Sieve capability vnd.dovecot.environment'. default: line 19: error: referring to variable in unknown namespace 'vnd'. default: error: validation failed. sievec(root): Fatal: failed to compile sieve script '/var/lib/dovecot-sieve/default.sieve'

can you link your doveconf -n and the sieve script?

The user’s detail are:

The sieve script is:

[root@gatekeeper ~]# cat /var/lib/dovecot-sieve/default.sieve #

require ["fileinto", "mailbox"]; require ["vacation", "variables"]; require ["vnd.dovecot.environment"];

# fileinto: for putting mail into a imap folder # mailbox: for creating imap folder if not exists # if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { # move mail into folder Junk, create folder if not exists fileinto :create "Junk"; stop; }

#if string :matches "${vnd.dovecot.mail_auto_reply_mode}" "reply" { if header :matches "subject" "*" { vacation :subject "AutoReply: ${1}" "${vnd.dovecot.mail_auto_reply_text}"; } #}

The dovecot -n is:

Performed actions:

START MESSAGE

END MESSAGE

Implicit keep:

store message in folder: INBOX

sieve-test(root): Info: final result: success

The variable “vnd.dovecot.mail_auto_reply_text” is the trouble - it’s not being resolved, and I have no idea what the format of the variable should be.

I think this should be

require ["environment"];

instead.

I eventually stumbled on a syntax that worked. Putting all of this in one place:

You need to turn on the sieve_extprograms plugin:

sieve_plugins = sieve_extprograms
Then you need to enable vnd.dovecot.environment:

sieve_global_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.environment
Then you need to pull the extra fields you want out of the userdb, and those fields must be prefixed with “sieve_env_”, like this example for LDAP:

user_attrs = mailMessageStore=home=%$,=sieve_env_mail_auto_reply_mode=%{ldap:mailAutoReplyMode},=sieve_env_mail_auto_reply_text=%{ldap:mailAutoReplyText}
Then you need to add a requirement on “vnd.dovecot.environment” to the sieve script.
Then, to access the variables in the sieve script, you need to drop the “sieve_env_” part, and add the prefix “env.vnd.dovecot.config.”. There are various docs floating around that reference the above variable without the leading “env.” - this must be there too.
The resulting sieve looks like this:

require ["fileinto", "mailbox"]; require ["vacation", "variables"]; require ["vnd.dovecot.environment"];

if string :matches "${env.vnd.dovecot.config.mail_auto_reply_mode}" "reply" { if header :matches "subject" "*" { vacation :subject "AutoReply: ${1}" "${env.vnd.dovecot.config.mail_auto_reply_text}"; } }

The output of sieve-test looks like this. The handle is weird, but I’m assuming there is method in the madness somehow:

Performed actions:

send vacation message: => seconds : 604800 => subject : AutoReply: Test1 => handle : ${env.vnd.dovecot.config.mail_auto_reply_text}AutoReply: ${1}<default-from><NO-MIME>

START MESSAGE I am truly away... END MESSAGE

This step is not needed for vnd.dovecot.environment. I don't see anything else in your Sieve script that makes this a requirement, so you should be able to remove it.

Where are those erroneous docs?

require ["fileinto", "mailbox"]; require ["vacation", "variables"]; require ["vnd.dovecot.environment"];

# fileinto: for putting mail into a imap folder # mailbox: for creating imap folder if not exists # if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { # move mail into folder Junk, create folder if not exists fileinto :create "Junk"; stop; }

if string :matches "${env.vnd.dovecot.config.mail_auto_reply_mode}" "reply" { if header :matches "subject" "*" { vacation :subject "AutoReply: ${1}" "${env.vnd.dovecot.config.mail_auto_reply_text}"; } }

Implicit keep:

The handle is created implicitly and makes sure vacation avoids sending multiple identical responses within the :days (or :seconds) period. If you change the vacation command in the Sieve script, the handle changes, making sure that contacts get to see a new vacation message even when they've contacted the recipient within the :days period.

Stephan.
