[Dovecot] Unable to get Managesieve working
I have Roundcube webmail (v. 0.8.2) running with the managesieve plugin (v. 5.1). I am able to create sieve rules without any problems in Roundcube, but incoming mail is not being processed with the rule I specify. I suspect there is something that isn't configured correctly in dovecot, but unfortunately I am unable to find a resolution online and my very limited knowledge of dovecot isn't allowing me to solve this problem on my own. I am including my dovecot config below. Please keep my knowledge level in mind when suggesting options and let me know if there is any other information I can provide to help troubleshoot the problem. Thanks for any assistance!

managesieve is the service for managing your sieve rules, it does not process any emails.
In order to actually sort mails into folders, you need to add the "sieve" plugin to your mail_plugins list.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve/Dovecot
protocol lda { .. # Support for dynamically loadable plugins. mail_plugins is a space separated # list of plugins to load. mail_plugins = sieve # ... other plugins like quota }

Ok, so when I add the mail_plugins = sieve I get: sudo service dovecot restart Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotFPlugin sieve not found from directory /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf failed
I am assuming something is missing here?

I guess you are missing the sieve plugin completely, did you install the dovecot-sieve plugin? Where did you get sieve from and how did you install it?
Did you follow all the compile instructions at http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve/Dovecot or did you install some package?
What do the following commands say?
# find /usr/lib/dovecot | grep sieve # apt-cache policy dovecot-sieve # dpkg -l "dovecot*"
Regards Daniel
I didn't follow those instructions as I assumed that it would be installed with Dovecot from the Debian repositories. See output of commands below. And thanks again for the help!

You should only put the mail_plugins=sieve inside de protocol lda {} section. Adding the Sieve plugin to IMAP makes no sense.
