ok, I am trying to start simple:
- removed the mail_plugin "listescape"
- set mail_location = maildir:%h/%d/%n/Maildir
- and changed the sieve script into:
require ["fileinto", "variables", "mailbox"];
if header :contains "Delivered-To" "@example.com"
{
fileinto :create "INBOX.example";
}
Running sieve from the cmdline returns:
error: msgid=<76c62f93-527a-d8d9-f787-65926d9c3e25 at domain.com>: fileinto
action: failed to store into mailbox 'INBOX.example': Character not
allowed in mailbox name: '.'.
sieve-filter(vmail): Info: sieve:
msgid=<76c62f93-527a-d8d9-f787-65926d9c3e25 at domain.com>: left message in
mailbox 'INBOX'
For some reason the :create seems to have a problem with the folder
separator '.'
Any clue how to get '.example' recognized as a subfolder?
