Package: dovecot-common Version: 1:1.0.14-1 Severity: wishlist
I'm trying to use Avelsieve with Dovecot managesieve, to generate sieve scripts for exim. This almost works, except for one thing: Dovecot reports a fixed ManageSieve CAPABILITIES string, that includes several caps (reject, imapflags, relational, regex, notify) that exim doesn't support. The client (Avelsieve) dutifully copies those caps into the sieve script, where exim chokes on them: $ /usr/lib/sendmail -v -bf .forward <testmsg.mbox Sender taken from "From " line Return-path taken from "Return-path:" header line Return-path = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sender = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Recipient = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Testing Sieve filter file ".forward" fileinto `inbox' Sieve error: unknown capability in line 9 The result from the user's point of view is that his/her filter script doesn't work: all messages get filed into "inbox". If managesieve included a configurable capabilities string, then we could work around this problem and use it with exim.
