Hi,
Here is what I did to get sieve to working on Solaris 8 with cyrus-imapd-2.1.9.
I don't think these actions are OS specific so I'm passing them along.
If you haven't already done so, check the documentation...
Man pages: imapd.conf(5), cyrus.conf(5), timsieved(8), master(8)
doc files: install-sieve.html, sieve-protocol.html, sieve.html
You need to have a sieve line in the /etc/cyrus.conf file's services section
something like:
-----/etc/cyrus.conf-----
<...>
SERVICES {
<...>
sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0
# this is only necessary if you are using notifications
notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/imap/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
<...>
}
<...>
-------------------------
In /etc/services add a line like the one below if one is not already there:
-----/etc/services------
<...>
sieve 2000/tcp
------------------------
There are some configuration parameters in the /etc/imapd.conf file that also
need to be set:
-----/etc/imapd.conf-----
<...>
## I'm not using home directories to store scripts. So I comment out
# sieveusehomedir: yes
## and set the location where scripts are stored.
sievedir: /var/imap/sieve
## the following is necessary to enable notifications (I think)
sievenotifier: null
sendmail: /usr/lib/sendmail
notifysocket: /var/imap/socket/notify
--------------------------
Restarting the master process should allow you to access the sieve server.
Test by attempting to telnet to the sieve server. If you can connect, enter
"logout" to exit. After this is successful, you can use sivtest or sieveshell
to fiddle around. Sample session using cyrus-imapd-2.1.9 should look like:
$ telnet localhost sieve
