Dovecot news - May 2015 - Released Pigeonhole v0.4.8.rc1 for Dovecot v2.2.17.rc1

Hello Dovecot users,

Here's the Pigeonhole RC that goes with the Dovecot RC. It includes a
few small fixes and one new feature.

Changelog v0.4.8.rc1:

* LDA Sieve plugin: Dovecot changed the deliver_log_format setting to
  include %{delivery_time}. This prompted changes in Pigeonhole that
  make this release dependent on Dovecot v2.2.17.
+ Implemented magic to make sieve_default script visible from
  ManageSieve under a configurable name. This way, users can see the
  default rules, edit them and store a private adjusted version. This
  could also be achieved by copying the default script into the user's
  script storage, but that way updates to the global sieve_default
  script would be ignored.
- Fixed problem in address test: erroneously decoded mime-encoded words
  in address headers.
- extprograms plugin: Fixed failure occurring when connecting to script
  service without the need to read back the output from the external
  program.
- Fixed bug in script storage path normalization occurring with relative
  symbolic links below root.
- Fixed and updated various parts of the documentation.

The release is available as follows:

http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.8.rc1.tar.gz
http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.8.rc1.tar.gz.sig

Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for
more information. Have fun testing this new release and don't hesitate
to notify me when there are any problems.

Regards,

I cannot view that URL (some broken SSL error). You can just put the
backtrace in the email itself.

Since switching to 0.4.8.rc1 all Sieve filtering has stopped working
for me. No errors in the logs. Switch back to 0.4.7 and everything
is working fine.

The Wiki is useless for help.. "This section should contain a step-wise 
approach to troubleshooting.". So any hints as to how to determine what
is going on behind the scenes with Pigeonhole?

You should try RC2 first. Your problem may be related, although I don't
really see how.

You should enable mail_debug=yes. This will make Sieve spew a lot of
information about what it is doing.

Stephan.

I am building a crude test suite to automatically run and check
dovecot-lda with Sieve in a few dozen different configurations (normal
test suite only tests the interpreter, not the LDA plugin). This problem
popped up too, and is now fixed:

http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole/rev/59d59552247c

This only happens when a sieve_default script is supposed to be executed
(i.e. if the user has no active personal script) and when
sieve_default_name is unset.

Regards,

Stephan.
