Since I have lots of filtering rules in thunderbird I was thinking of
using sieve instead.
I want to filter incoming mail into subdirectories.
like "from" store at folder "old".
the script is:
require ["fileinto", "envelope"];
if envelope :is "from" "eliezer at test.dom" {
fileinto "old";
} else {
# The rest goes into INBOX
# default is "implicit keep", we do it explicitly here
keep;
}
the result is that the mail is stored in two folders instead of just
one, INBOX and old.
the logs shows:
Oct 23 17:12:26 lda(eliezer at ngtech.co.il): Debug: sieve: executing
script from /home/vmail/domain/eliezer/home/.dovecot.svbin
Oct 23 17:12:26 lda(eliezer at test1.dom): Info: sieve:
msgid=<5086B3C9.5030909 at test.dom>: stored mail into mailbox
'INBOX'
Oct 23 17:12:26 lda(eliezer at test1.dom): Info: sieve:
msgid=<5086B3C9.5030909 at test.dom>: stored mail into mailbox
'old'
from unknown reason(or I didnt understood how sieve works?)
plugin section from dovecot -n
plugin {
...
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve
sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.debug +imapflags +relational
+comparator-i;ascii-numeric
}
Thanks,
Eliezer

RFC 5228, Section 3.1 ... If the test of the "if" is false, it evaluates the test of the first "elsif" (if any). If the test of "elsif" is true, it runs the elsif's block. An elsif may be followed by an elsif, in which case, the interpreter repeats this process until it runs out of elsifs. When the interpreter runs out of elsifs, there may be an "else" case. If there is, and none of the if or elsif tests were true, the interpreter runs the else's block. ... Stefan, can you enlighten us? Dennis [..]

Be careful, the above command adds a message to the user's mailbox, so read the sieve-test man page first before you try anything. Also, I executed this from my development tree, because I haven't got an operational Dovecot v2.0 installation. I don't remember any bug that was solved since that version that could explain what you're seeing. What is your Pigeonhole version? I've tried with v0.2.5 at this end. Also, could you provide your full configuration as output from `dovecot -n` ? Regards, Stephan.

I just use stop a lot. This is included from my Main.seive: # # 2012-07-05 # require "include"; require "fileinto"; require "copy"; #require "body"; #require "imap4flags"; # put this in main #if header :contains "list-id" "dovecot.dovecot.org" { include "Dovecot"; } if address :is :localpart "to" "dovecot" { fileinto :copy "SystemFolders.Ham"; fileinto "Lists.Dovecot"; stop; } fileinto "Lists"; stop; As you can see, I also train Spamassassin with the mail from the list.
