[Dovecot] POP3 Problem with SPAM-Mail's over sieve
Hi together,
i am currently using dovecot 1.2.10 with the sieve-plugin and use a sieve-filter to sort the SPAM-Mail's directly into a Junk-Folder:
require "fileinto"; # rule:[junkfilter] if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "Junk"; }
My problem is now, if i try to retrieve the Mails via POP3, i did not get the SPAM-Mail's in the Junk-Folder, only the normal ones, that are not filtered over the sieve plugin.
Could anyone tell me how to solve that issue ?
best regards Michael

POP3 has no concept of folders, so only mails in INBOX are accessible.
In the wiki there's a "Virtual INBOX por POP with all folders"
solution, but the net effect is displaying all e-mails from all
folders in the INBOX, so you might save a few processor cycles and
simply not filter mails in folders in the first place.

Hello Michael,
I don't know if there are any other new ways of doing this, but a while ago i had that same need. I solved it by creating a wrapper and using
NOTE: This is for maildir only
mail_executable = /usr/local/bin/pop-wrapper.sh
That wrapper basically copies all the messages from the Spam maildir into the Inbox maildir, executing /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 afterwards.
a simplistic approach would be something like
#!/bin/sh
for i in /usr/bin/find Maildir/.Spam -type f -iregex ".*/new/.*" -o -iregex ".*/cur/.*" ; do mv $i Maildir/new/ ; done
exec /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3
