I am moving my email server from Ubuntu Lucid to Arch. The Arch server is running Dovecot V2.0.15. Email is working fine, but I can't get Pigeonhiole/sieve to work.

My dovecot.conf is:

protocols = imap sieve ssl = yes ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mail2.wilkesley.net.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mail2.wilkesley.net.key first_valid_uid = 5000 first_valid_gid = 5000 auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@

namespace { location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir type = private prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes hidden = yes }

protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-extra-mailbox-sep } protocol lda { postmaster_address = ian@wilkesley.net hostname = wilkesley.org sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve

}

protocol sieve { # Nothing to do here as defaults are OK

}

plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_global_path = /home/vmail/globalsieverc sieve_dir = ~/ }

passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf }

I have created the sieve dir in the virtual users folder. However sieve doesn't appear to be working. I have tried logging in manually to see if sieve is running, but get the following error: ian:~/ $ gnutls-cli --starttls -p 143 mail2.wilkesley.net [8:32:22] Resolving 'mail2.wilkesley.net'... Connecting to '127.0.0.1:143'...

• Simple Client Mode:

• OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. STARTTLS STARTTLS BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. According to the Dovecot wiki this should reply with the capabilities of my server, Note the server sends and receives mail OK using starttls.

So what am I doing wrong?
