I had the same problem and solved it using a bash programan that generates the necesary sieve scripts. This is run with cron every day at night It checks for configuration request on a directory, process those files and creates sieve scripts for vacation activation and for deactivation, finaly it uses sieveshell to upload the scripts. At this moment this scripts are in their first version I hope to improve them but It would be better to have this functionality in sieve. bye Listaccount wrote: > Zitat von Ian G Batten <ian.batten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > > >> We've been having a chat about how useful it would be to have timed >> actions in sieve: so that a vacation message could be set up for a >> duration which would automatically revert, so that a forwarding could >> be set up for the duration of a short-term project, etc, etc. The >> naive way is to add support to the sieve interface of choice (the >> squirrelmail plugin in our case) to handle deferred actions, but I >> can think of all sorts of security problems with that.
