Plugin sieve vs. imap_sieve
Dear all,
I just saw that a "new" plugin imap_sieve is available: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Plugins/IMAPSieve
I configured everything using the plugin sieve.
Was the plugin sieve just renamed to imap_sieve or is it completely different?
Thanks a lot for explaining what had been changed here, I cannot find anything in the wiki.
Gruß Matthias

It is completely different. The sieve plugin is a plugin for LDA and LMTP, which perform final delivery of a message. The imap_sieve plugin is for IMAP and invokes Sieve scripts for messages that are already stored.

For one, the wiki page you referenced should explain that pretty well. You could also read the referenced http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6785 to find out what features this plugin adds in detail.
Regards,
Stephan.
