I am using dovecot 1.0.10 and pysieved, in a master/slave cluster with ldap (auth_bind=yes). For conceptuals reasons, i would like to keep on the same partition the mailstore + sieve scripts.

I have try to set "sieve" and "home" variables under the "plugin" section with an absolute path, and i have tried to override home variable in user_attrs (dovecot-ldap.conf) as well with an absolute path, but in vain.

Set mail_debug=yes and auth_debug=yes. What does deliver log then?

Thanks for your fast answer.

With the plugin options, i get :

• for the deliver :

• for smartsieve/pysieved login, i get :

So, it seems it works for deliver (the home dir is the equivalent of my "home" variable in the plugin section, but not the sieve variable (which would be /var/spool/imap/user1/pysieved/sieve). However, it doesn't for the auth (from auth-master socket) which keeps the home value fetched from ldap.

I am using the auth-master/auth-client sockets with pysieved. When i connect using the smartsieve php frontal, pysieved seeks data in /home/user1 insted of /var/spool/imap/user1/sieve ...

is it a dovecot or pysieved issue ?

Actually, there is no problem with the deliver : it displays a warning if the home directory overrided by the variable "home" (in my conf) is not existent, and it uses the right sieve script according to the "sieve" variable described in the plugin section.

However, pysieved (using auth-master socket) does not get the right value for "sieve" and "home" variables (or at least pysieved does not get the right value for sieve scripts location).

Is a dovecot or pysieved issue ?

To make it clear and end up the thread, the deliver does use the home/sieve variables described in the plugin section. However, the auth-master socket (that i use with a frontend to manage my sieve scripts) does not use them.

There is then 4 choices :

• make my own dovecot patch making the master socket or userdb-ldap read plugin's variables (tricky,might be hazardous for an uninitiated?)
• use dovecot 1.1.* and overriding the home attribute value in user_attr (dovecot-ldap.conf)
• patch my application (here pysieved)
• use the dovecot managesieve patch (if managesieve reads plugin's variables??)

I would have appreciated to see that there is a proper way to change the sieve scripts location with dovecot 1.0.x which works with pysieved (and at least ldap userdb). As I have mentioned, there are solutions. Thanks anyway for this great software.

Hello...

I had the problem described in this thread. I fixed it by changing the dovecot.py program in the pysieved package. My mailfolders are all in /home/vmail/USERNAME.

The last two lines (comment + code) in the code below is my addition to dovecot.py. The code above my lines are there to let you know where in the programme to add my line(s). It's in a function called lookup.

for part in ret.split('\t'): if part.startswith('uid='): uid = part[4:] elif part.startswith('gid='): gid = part[4:] elif part.startswith('home='): home = part[5:]

HACK TO HARDCODE HOMEDIR PATH

home = '/home/vmail/' + params['username']

Thanks, Tobias
