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 Extension: Externally Stored Lists
Author(s) : A. Melnikov, B. Leiba
Filename : draft-ietf-sieve-external-lists-05.txt
Pages : 13
Date : 2011-03-01
The Sieve scripting language can be used to implement whitelisting,
blacklisting, personal distribution lists, and other sorts of list
matching. Currently, this requires that all members of such lists be
hardcoded in the script itself. Whenever a member of a list is added
or deleted, the script needs to be updated and possibly uploaded to a
mail server.
This document defines a Sieve extension for accessing externally
stored lists -- lists whose members are stored externally to the
script, such as using LDAP (RFC 4510), ACAP (RFC 2244), or relational
databases.
ToDo
o Should we add a mandatory-to-implement tag? Ned suggests (and I
agree) that it might be good to add a registry of well-defined
strings that can be used instead of URIs, and define the initial
string "ab" to represent the user's personal address book.
o Do we want to have the :list test set variables? See Ned's
comments in the text.
