The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Sieve Extension for Converting Messages Before Delivery' (draft-ietf-sieve-convert-06.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Sieve Mail Filtering Language Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Pete Resnick and Peter Saint-Andre. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sieve-convert/ Technical Summary This document describes how IMAP CONVERT can be used within Sieve to transform messages before final delivery. Working Group Summary This extension started as an individual submission in 2008 and was adopted as a WG document in 2010. The basic premise has remained the same throughout all revisions of the document. This extension adds a new combined action and test to SIEVE to allow message parts to be converted to other types during delivery. One new behavior here is that this extension creates a new combined test and action. This is something new for SIEVE (though allowed by the base spec), and implementors were explicitly asked to comment on whether this approach was viable - with a positive response. The document has not received any reviews from non-WG members. However, many of the existing WG members had participated in the Lemonade WG IMAP CONVERT work, on which the SIEVE convert extension is heavily based, so from that standpoint we do have review from existing IMAP implementors. Document Quality There are no known implementations of this extension at present. Various vendors have expressed interest in implementing this extension, however it is not currently a top priority for any of them.
