NAME¶
doveadm-sieve - Commands related to handling Sieve scripts
SYNOPSIS¶
doveadm [-Dv] [-f formatter] sieve_cmd [options] [arguments]
DESCRIPTION¶
The doveadm sieve commands are part of the Pigeonhole Project (pigeonhole(7)), which adds Sieve (RFC 5228) and ManageSieve (RFC 5804) support to the Dovecot secure IMAP and POP3 server (dovecot(1)). The doveadm sieve commands can be used to manage Sieve filtering.
OPTIONS¶
Global doveadm(1) options:
- -D
- Enables verbosity and debug messages.
- -f formatter
- Specifies the formatter for formatting the output. Supported formatters are:
- -o setting=value
- Overrides the configuration setting from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and from the userdb with the given value. In order to override multiple settings, the -o option may be specified multiple times.
- -v
- Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
Command specific options:
- -A
- If the -A option is present, the command will be performed
for all users. Using this option in combination with system users from
userdb { driver = passwd } is not recommended, because it contains
also users with a lower UID than the one configured with the
first_valid_uid setting.
When the SQL userdb module is used make sure that the iterate_query setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches your database layout. When using the LDAP userdb module, make sure that the iterate_attrs and iterate_filter settings in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext match your LDAP schema. Otherwise doveadm(1) will be unable to iterate over all users.
- -S socket_path
- The option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX domain
socket, or a hostname and port (hostname:port), in order to
connect a remote host via a TCP socket.
This allows an administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands through the given socket.
- -u user/mask
- Run the command only for the given user. It's also possible
to use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u *@example.org).
When neither the -A option nor -u user was specified, the command will be executed with the environment of the currently logged in user.
ARGUMENTS¶
- scriptname
- Is the name of a Sieve script, as visible to ManageSieve clients.
- NOTE: For Sieve scripts that are stored on disk, this is the filename without the ".sieve" extension.
COMMANDS¶
sieve put¶
doveadm sieve put [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] [-a] scriptname
This command puts one new Sieve script in the script storage. The script is read from standard input. If the script compiles successfully, it is stored under the provided scriptname . If the -a option is present, the Sieve script is subsequently marked as the active script for execution at delivery.
sieve get¶
doveadm sieve get [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command retrieves the Sieve script named scriptname.
sieve delete¶
doveadm sieve delete [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] [-a] scriptname ...
This command deletes one or more Sieve scripts. The deleted script may not be the active script, unless the -a option is present.
sieve list¶
doveadm sieve list [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
Use this command to get an overview of existing Sieve scripts.
sieve rename¶
doveadm sieve rename [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] old_name new_name
The sieve rename command is used to rename the Sieve script old_name to new_name.
sieve activate¶
doveadm sieve activate [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command marks the Sieve script named scriptname as the active script for execution at delivery.
sieve deactivate¶
doveadm sieve deactivate [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command deactivates Sieve processing.
