I have had mixed luck with direct mailbox delivery(+ addressing) and
when I say mixed I mean mostly bad.
I wanted to try using it for direct delivery of copies of all sent messages.
I found I needed special permissions on all the mailboxes and duplicate
delivery detection would not work in that configuration.
So I dropped it.
My guess would be that you may need to setup a shared mailbox or group
mail account that would process the mail into the shared mailbox and
then you could use sieve.

I have the shared mailbox working just fine… it is only the sieve on
shared mailboxes that is failing...
aliases file:
mbujobs: +shared/mbujobs
exim router:
imap_shared_accept:
driver = accept
local_parts = ^\\+[^/]+/.+
transport = local_delivery_cyrus
cannot_route_message = Unknown user
exit transport:
local_delivery_cyrus:
driver= lmtp
socket = /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp
batch_max= 20
user = cyrus
group = mail
transport_filter = /usr/bin/tr -d \\000

Sieve is run as part of the mail delivery into the mailbox.
That would either be deliver or the lmtp interface.
If your users are dragging and dropping the messages into the shared
mailboxes then I don't believe that you can have sieve run on the
mbox to mbox transfer.

Greetings
I have been managing our mail domain on a cyrus-imap (&exim) server
since 2005 and it has always been great for our ~150 users.
Of course, over-time more complexity is always required and I have
recently implemented a few shared mailboxes (rather than just
sharing user mailboxes).
Inevitably, the users are now asking for an auto-reply to be
configured for some of these shared mailboxes…
We are already using sieve scripts (managed with Roundcubemail
talking through the firewall to timsieved) so it seems natural to
use this technology here too...
I have followed the instructions on this page:
https://cyrusimap.org/imap/admin/sieve.html?highlight=sieve#managing-sieve-scripts
But the last step doesn’t seem to do anything…
So I have a few related questions:
1) how can I query a mailbox to read the flags set by mboxconfig?
2) has anyone got sieve working with shared mailboxes?
3) is it possible to invoke a sieveshell in the context of a shared
mailbox?
I seem to have successfully created the global scripts (a ‘global’
folder has appeared in the sievedir) - just can’t seem to attach it
to a shared mailbox.
Many thanks!
Merlin
