Re: Sieve - howto - first steps
Hi Jeremy, Hi Alice, Hi ML,
I've some problems getting sieve to work.
>You can store in /usr/sieve/j/jh_lists (for instance)
O.K. if done this.
My directory is /usr/sieve/j/jochenmetzger (for instance)
(jochenmetzger is my mailbox-user)
What are the recommend rights?
I've got 755 on all directories in /usr/sieve

o.k. I used sieve-php -> it made up a file
default.script and a link
default -> default.script
>And `chown -R cyrus:mail /usr/sieve`.
O.K. I did this

I've set up one for sieve-php -> this works pretty.
I haven`t changed imapd.conf because I use
default in /usr/sieve
and sieve-files in userdirectories is false
(which - concerning man imapd.conf) should be default.
That's what my default rule looks like:
require "fileinto";
if address :contains :all ["to", "cc", "bcc"] "PI:"{ fileinto
"INBOX.hallo";}
else {fileinto "INBOX";
}
In my opinion sieve isn't being used.
Is sieve being used by default or must I change an option to activate it
(in cyrus.conf or imapd.conf)
I use imapd 2.0.16.
Well I tried
require "fileinto";
if address :contains :all ["to", "cc", "bcc"] "PI:"{ fileinto
"INBOX.hallo";}
else {fileinto "INBOX.2 Test";
}
as well, but the messages are still all delivered to INBOX.
So the system isn't really reading sieve-rules.
-> For instance. Do I have to reload something, when changing the rules?
<-
Can someone give a helping hand?
THX for your help
Jochen Metzger
P.S. I think this might be easier as getting cyrus run. So I'm really
glad to have arrived here by far.

reset passwd for cyrus admin user
HI all. Im at a co that just had some BIG layoffs and now im in charge of email systems. However the old email admin was one of the ones let go and I didnt get the password for the cyradm admin user (cyrus). Is there a way I can reset this passwd or get into cyradm with admin access? --CH
AW: reset passwd for cyrus admin user
Hi Chris, >a way I can > reset this passwd or get into cyradm with admin access? >Admin access. might work lik this (when you have root rights on the server). Change imapd.conf in /etc -> add new user to the line admins: saslpasswd newuser -> enter passwd. of user it might work when you have restarted the server. I don't know how to restart it. I would do killall master /usr/cyrus/bin/master & But this might not be the right way. You should probably figure out another method. HTH Jochen Metzger > > > --CH >

That could be the system database which you can change the password with "passwd" or the sasldb which you can change the password with saslpasswd. if you are using pam or ldap, you are on your own as far as I am concerned, but the same idea applies. You can verify the admin users and your authentication method in your imapd.conf.

Yet another perl script for loading Cyrus mailboxes
People were asking about this perl script, so I thought I'd make it publically available. Using it, I was able to load a Unix mail spool containing about 5 gigabytes of mail, spread over about 17000 mailboxes, in just under five hours. load-imap is used to populate a Cyrus IMAP server from Unix mailboxes, preserving the `read' status of messages. The Cyrus mailboxes should have been previously created, with the appropriate quota. User names are taken from the Unix mailbox names. load-imap must authenticate as the user to set the \Seen flag correctly. To permit this, temporarily replace the authentication daemon with one that always checks only the administrator password, regardless of the userid presented. load-imap uses only plain-text password authentication. The perl script, along with patch files and documention, is available at http://mail.cc.umanitoba.ca/source/ . I'll also be be adding it to the Cyrus utilities archive at sourceforge as soon as I figure out how to do that. -- -Gary Mills--Unix Support--U of M Academic Computing and Networking-

FYI, you might want to use the Cyrus::IMAP module and use AUTHENTICATE PLAIN (or add PLAIN to Net::IMAP). By doing this, you can proxy for each user by logging in as an admin and assuming the user's identity (see RFC2595 for details). IMO this is cleaner than patching saslauthd.
