Hi,
I've been struggling with figuring out how to set up a sieve vacation reply script. The documentation on this is pretty sparse, and the stuff I do find doesn't work. For example, [cyrus@www ~]$ sieveshell --user=research@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --authname=cyrus localhost connecting to localhost unable to connect to server at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 191. [cyrus@www ~]$ sieveshell --user=research@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --authname=cyrus episcopalarchives.org connecting to episcopalarchives.org unable to connect to server at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 191.
first of all you have to add lines to /etc/cyrus.conf to make the server listen to the right ports:
At least in our /etc/services file, "sieve" is still port 2000 even though that's been superseded by RFC 5804. We listen on both ports:
sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="cyrus.rrz.uni-koeln.de:sieve" prefork=0 managesieve cmd="timsieved" listen="cyrus.rrz.uni-koeln.de:4190" prefork=0
I'm also not sure what the point is of sieveshell is if I'm running it on the mail server and not remotely; similarly for timsieved.
You can run sieveshell on any computer you like. Just make sure the port mentioned above are reachable.
First question: is there step by step explanation for manually creating and invoking a cyrus sieve script for a particular user?
Not really. I prefer to use a GUI.
