Should seive / managesieve work out of the box?

Hi,

Should managedsieve work out of the box? I’m trying to get it working. I can see:

Looking on my server in /etc/dovecot/sieve , I can see 20-managesieve.conf etc. However, it doesn’t seem to be doing anything. What am I missing? I’ve looked around at loads of posts (not on here), and they say about enabling LMTP, and things like that - but the fact you have those files in the installer makes me think it should be simpler than that to get going?

FWIW, this is what I get from:


dovecot -n | grep pro
protocols = imap pop3 sieve imap lmtp sieve pop3
ssl_min_protocol = TLSv1.2
protocol imap {
protocol pop3 {

Thanks!

Andy

Add -Z yes during the install or run:

Amazing! Thanks! I wish I’d seen that option when installing. That seems to have done most of it. I have setup a filter in Roundcube:

Then sent an email from the said test filters account. It comes through ok, but ends up in the Inbox still. Is there any manual steps I need to take? I can see the /home/xxx/mail/xxx.com/test/sieve/managesieve.sieve file exists

require ["fileinto"];
# rule:[SPAM]
if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES"
{
	fileinto "INBOX.Spam";
}
# rule:[dsfsdfsdf]
if allof (header :contains "from" "[email protected]")
{
	fileinto "bla";
}

Yet it doesn’t seem to do it?

UPDATE: Scrap that - it works! Not sure why my last test didn’t, but the one I just did works perfectly now. Thank you so much! I must have spent 12 hours trying to get that going over the last couple of days!
