dovecot - Oct 2019 - sieve cli

i am using dovecot-2.2.36-3.el7_7.1.x86_64 on centos 7

is it possible to activate / deactivate a sieve script for a mailbox 
from the command line?

my mailboxes are currently stores in /../vmail/domain.tld/username

if i activate / deactivate a filter set using roundcube (webmail system) 
then it creates or deletes a symbolic link 
/../vmail/domain.tld/username/dovecot.sieve? which points to a file 
/../vmail/domain.tld/username/sieve/managesieve.sieve.

if i create this symbolic link manually it doesn't seem to work

Hi!

You can use 'doveadm sieve' commands to manage scripts, e.g.
'doveadm sieve activate'.

You can use the sieve-connect command which uses the managesieve
protocol to speak to the server.
