I've been running Cyrus-imapd on Mandriva Linux for a few years now and all is well with the basic server. But sieveshell has never worked despite various attempts. For the new year, I'm making another attempt at getting sieve to work. Sieveshell has problems, so I want to just manually put the sieve files into each user directory. I've got user home directories for each user, so I've set sieveusehomedir: true I've put a test sieve script ~/.sieve in the users home directory. There is no complaint in the logs, but the mail is not processed according to the sieve rules. Is it that I can't just write plaintext .sieve files, that they have to be bytecode? If so, how can I do this without sieveshell? Thanks for any advice... emdx ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
