[Dovecot] vacation plugins for squirrelmail

Thank you Tamsy for sharing with me your config file.

Initially, I thought I tried not to use managesieve and that's why I skipped that part there. But after seeing your config, I'd try to use managesieve. I would need to modify my dovecot config file first to incorporate the managesieve. And I also learnt that I need to put in my domain name. In this case, I would try this again next week as this server has not been made as a production server just yet. I thought if I could get all the things I need to work before the day of putting it online to the Internet. That would save me a lot of work.

Thank you once again

Hi Daminto,

That looks pretty much unconfigured. No wonder nothing is coming up.

I have attached the avelsieve config file we are using on one of our domains. Don't copy it blindly. At least you should configure $sieveport to the port you are using on your server for Sieve. And put your domain name where it reads YOURDOMAINNAMEHERE.com.
For the arrays at $headers you should tune the filters you are using with your headers.

Hope this helps (working fine with our domain and Squirrel-Mail).

Rgds
Tamsy
