I don't think it's something I'm missing in the autosieve patch, but a
feature I'm missing in sieve itself. (But maybe I've overlooked it in a
spec.)
The use I had in mind was to autocreate (archive-)folders with dates in
it, like a fileinto "INBOX.archive-${year}"; (I hope that example
explains it ;-)) but then there has to be something in sieve that
decides what folder to create of course, e.g. something that puts a year
(or something else) in a variable. And *then* the autocreate patch could
be very useful for us, since the folder to create does then contain a
variable ;-)
There are not a lot of other cases where folders need to be auto-created
in our setup. (Or it's automated in a different way.)
Regards,
Paul
P.S. I think it's the variable extension in sieve that could provide
this, if not for the fact that "setdate" has been removed from the
specification (which I think would be what I'm looking for) and that the
variable extension is not supported with Cyrus...

At the university of Athens they created a patch for this; see http://email.uoa.gr/projects/cyrus/autosievefolder/ It is included in the Invoca RPMs, and Blaswave packages too I believe... I see in my man imapd.conf: anysievefolder: 0 It must be "yes" in order to permit the autocreation of any INBOX subfolder requested by a sieve filter, through the "fileinto" action. (default = no) autosievefolders: It is a "|" separated list of subfolders of INBOX that will be automatically created, if requested by a sieve filter, through the "fileinto" action. (default = null) i.e. autosievefolders: Junk | Spam Which is what you're looking for, I believe. (I never used it though. I was considering it, but for us I think it would only make sense if you could use variables in the folder-names or so (like the month/year)) Paul Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
sieve autocreate
Hello, does sieve include any form of autocreating a "fileinto"-folder? I know that there's an option in Cyrus, but that doesn't help me in this case. Each user shall be able to define a name for a Junk-folder. Usually this is "Junk" (in Thunderbird), but in other Applications it might be called "Spam", "Unwanted" or even with Umlauts "Unerwünschte Nachrichten". I surely put this name after the "fileinto" command, but is there also a way to create this folder automatically or check if it exists at each delivery?
