dovecot - Mar 2012 - dovecot, sieve and vacation

Hi there !

Have a small problem with sieve and vacation: it seems to descard the vacation
filter I created instead of sending back an email:

Mar 20 11:56:28 hostname dovecot: deliver(virtual_user): sieve:
msgid=unspecified: discarding vacation response for message implicitly delivered
to <virtual_user at hostname>

after searching a bit on the net, I stumbled on another (old) thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot at dovecot.org/msg25955.html

I'm not really sure it's the same problem, as I'm sending the mail
from another host (via telnet, for testing purpose).

Other sieve rules (such as flagging, moving and so on) work fine. Only vacation
is crapy.

Here's the roundcube generated rule:
require ["vacation"];

if true
{
        vacation :days 2 "on holidays!";
}

Any help welcome :)

Cheers,

C.

The vacation action will not send a response when the envelope-to 
address (in your case virtual_user at hostname) is not contained in the To: 
or Cc: headers of the message itself; the message needs to be explicitly 
addressed to the recipient. For the version you are using this needs to 
match the final recipient as passed to Dovecot. In newer versions of the 
Pigeonhole Sieve implementation the original SMTP envelope recipient 
(i.e. before local rewrites) can also be used instead. Alternatively, 
new versions allow disabling this behavior entirely, although this is 
not recommended.

Regards,

Stephan.

Hello,

thanks for the hint. In fact, I have to add the address aliases in the rule, and
it works. Not really cool, but it works like that :).

Cheers,
