Hi, We currently have a setup where exim delivers to Maildir, and each user has a .forward with an exim filter. Users access their mail using Thunderbird via IMAP (using dovecot). So far, everything is working fine. Now I''m looking for a way to automatically label all new mails in one specific account so they appear as ''to do'' in Thunderbird (I can''t do that in Thunderbird itself since it''s a shared account that''s used from different client machines). As far as I can see, that cannot be done in an exim filter, but it can be done in a sieve filter using addflag "$label4". I tried that, but that doesn''t work in the current setup; the log says appendfile: file or directory name "inbox" is not absolute The docs say that the name inbox must be handled for Sieve filters, and show a way to do that for classical mailboxes. So I think I need to set directory (not file) in a way that handles the Sieve name ''inbox'' in a way suitable for Maildir, and also still supports the exim filters of all the other accounts (though I could convert all those to Sieve filters if there''s no other way). I thought that should be a relatively common setup, but I can''t find any information on it. Can someone give me some pointers on how to do this? (we''re using exim 4.63-17 on Debian etch) Best regards, Roel -- The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom. -- Isaac Asimov Roel Schroeven
