Hi Bryan,

I ca do a telnet localhost sieve, this is the result:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
"IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.2.8-Invoca-RPM-2.2.8-1"
"SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress relational regex"
"STARTTLS"
OK


When i issue 'netstat' this is the result:
tcp        0      0 *:sieve                 *:*                     LISTEN

Under /etc/service:
sieve           2000/tcp                        # Sieve Mail Filter Daemon
sieve           2000/udp                        # Sieve Mail Filter Daemons:

I don't know whats wrong, when I check the log files, I saw this:

timsieved: could not getenv(CYRUS_SERVICE); exiting

in my imapd.conf:
sievedir: /usr/sieve
sieveusehomedir: 0
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail

Any idea where did I missed out?

Thanks and regards,
Damian

I checked netstat and sieve is running. Thats why, I really feel kind of
lost as to where should I start to troubleshhot from...



I'm unsure what netstat is reporting, but you should be able to telnet to the sieve port on your machine and see if sieve is actually running. ie:

% telnet localhost sieve
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
"IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.1.17"
"SASL" "PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5"
"SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress
relational regex"
"STARTTLS"
OK
^]
telnet> quit
%

If you can't connect then likely timsieved isn't actually running --
either it's not enabled in your config, or (this has bitten me before)
it's not defined in /etc/services on your machine.
