Dear All, Thanks ofr the great job so far. I have crawled the doc & web, and did not find oh to check for the presence of a folder ina? a mailbox? I know about "fileinto :create" of course, but the purpose is slightly different: I want to automate the move into a folder based on some rules but *only if* an associated folder is present (which name is based on the rule), otherwise I will do a form of catch-all. Example: - INBOX ???? +- abc ???? +- def - Rule detects "aaa" in someheader field: folder "aaa" not present" -> continue; - Rule detect "def" in some header field: "def exists" -> fileinto "def" ?? ; stop; Any help appreciated. Cheers, A/

Pigeonhome Sieve: check existence of a folder?
What about extension "mailbox"?
https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5490#section-3
A simple example (not tested, but should work):
note:?
+ I use '/' instead of '.' as hierarchical separator
+ stop; stops the whole script, but you could use elsif instead.
require ["fileinto", "mailbox"];
if header :contains "header's name" "aaa" {
if mailboxexists "INBOX/aaa" {
fileinto "INBOX/aaa";
stop;
}
}?
if header :contains "header's name" "def" {
if mailboxexists "INBOX/def" {
fileinto "INBOX/def";
stop;
}
}
Greetings Martin

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
That's what I tried at first, but got error message from the editor
(tb60+sieve)
Seems to be ok now.
Thanks for the help, I tried*mailboxexists("xxx")* instead
of*mailboxexists "xxx"* which I did not find as such n the doc.
Cheers
