Hi Stephan,

I'm not sure, I'm using Dovecot-managesieved 0.4.0-14, which I believe is
commit

1771:b41f5cf04b8f, which is actually *before* the commit you mentioned.


I'm not clear because you already have a release (v4.1) which does contain
that patch; are you suggesting that an upgrade to that version might help?


Regards,

Anand
