Sieve and managesieve on redhat EL 6 with Dovecot 2.0.9

Last time , I applied LDA deliverey on our MTA instead of procmail.

let's try to add sieve funtions to dovecot.

first, stop everything :)

# service stop postfix
# service stop dovecot


after that you must install dovecot pigeonhole with

# yum install dovecot-pigeonhole

after that, go to dovecot/conf.d directory.
1. Edit your 15-lda.conf file and uncomment plugins parameter in protocol lda seciton:


mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve 


We have aditional two files in here for sieve configuration, 20-managesieve.conf and 90-sieve.conf.

2. Go to 90-sieve.conf file and edit parameters below:
sieve = /var/sieve-scripts/%u.sieve
sieve_dir = /home/vmail/domains/sieve/%n/.sieve
Note:
 %u user     full username (e.g. user@domain)
 %n username user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain
 %d domain   domain part in user@domain, empty if user with no domain

3. In 20-managesieve.conf file uncomment
  protocols = $protocols sieve

and 

 inet_listener sieve {

    port = 4190

  }

lines and add this parameters end of  file

plugin {

  # Used by both the Sieve plugin and the ManageSieve protocol

  sieve = /var/sieve-scripts/%u.sieve  

  sieve_dir = /home/vmail/domains/sieve/%n/.sieve

}

* Our mail_location is mbox:/home/vmail/domains/%d/%u and there is no mail_home config parameter. Home directory is come form OpenLDAP field (Jamm schema)

and scripts folder is like this.

drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 4096 May 28 14:43 /var/sieve-scripts 

And start everything

# service start postfix
# service start dovecot

I suggest , you must do change delivery method to LDA , so after that install sieve things. If you have any webmail interface like roundcube, afterlogic , you can install managesieve plugin or filter plugin than you can start create your filters.
