Since version 2.2.13 bulletins/shared-folders can be made to evaluate
sieve scripts. Configuring these scripts is different in two key ways:
- sieve scripts for shared folders must be uploaded into the global
namespace, one does this by connecting to the sieve server as a user
listed in the 'admins' section in imapd.conf
- once the script has been uploaded into the global namespace a
shared folder can be configured to use the script via the new
'sieve' mailbox annotation (e.g. in cyradm 'mboxcfg <mailbox> sieve
<sieve_script_name>)
We use this feature a lot these days.
One interesting gotcha about the sieve global namespace is that (at
least in 2.3.7) it is subject to some of the same limitations as a
normal user's sieve access. With the default configs you'll be able
to upload a maximum of 5 separate scripts to the global namespace.
'sieve_maxscripts' can be set to a value higher than 5 but of course
this will allow normal users to upload more scripts as well. It would
be nice to be able to configure distinct behaviors / limitations /
capabilities for the global namespace vs the end-user space.
