A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Sieve Mail Filtering Language Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Sieve Email Filtering: Include Extension
	Author(s)       : C. Daboo, A. Stone
	Filename        : draft-ietf-sieve-include-00.txt
	Pages           : 11
	Date            : 2009-03-23

The Sieve Email Filtering "include" extension permits users to
include one Sieve script inside another.  This can make managing
large scripts or multiple sets of scripts much easier, as well as
supporting common 'libraries' of scripts.  Users are able to include
their own personal scripts or site-wide scripts provided by the local
Sieve implementation.
