DOVEADM-SIEVE(1) Pigeonhole DOVEADM-SIEVE(1)
NAME
doveadm-sieve - Commands related to handling Sieve scripts
SYNOPSIS
doveadm [-Dv] [-f formatter] sieve_cmd [options] [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
The doveadm sieve commands are part of the Pigeonhole Project (pigeon-
hole(7)), which adds Sieve (RFC 5228) and ManageSieve (RFC 5804) sup-
port to the Dovecot secure IMAP and POP3 server (dovecot(1)). The
doveadm sieve commands can be used to manage Sieve filtering.
OPTIONS
Global doveadm(1) options:
-D Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-f formatter
Specifies the formatter for formatting the output. Supported
formatters are:
flow prints each line with key=value pairs.
pager prints each key: value pair on its own line and separates
records with form feed character (^L).
tab prints a table header followed by tab separated value
lines.
table prints a table header followed by adjusted value lines.
-o setting=value
Overrides the configuration setting from /etc/dovecot/dove-
cot.conf and from the userdb with the given value. In order to
override multiple settings, the -o option may be specified mul-
tiple times.
-v Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
Command specific options:
-A If the -A option is present, the command will be performed for
all users. Using this option in combination with system users
from userdb { driver = passwd } is not recommended, because it
contains also users with a lower UID than the one configured
with the first_valid_uid setting.
When the SQL userdb module is used make sure that the iter-
ate_query setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches
your database layout. When using the LDAP userdb module, make
sure that the iterate_attrs and iterate_filter settings in
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext match your LDAP schema. Oth-
erwise doveadm(1) will be unable to iterate over all users.
-S socket_path
The option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX
domain socket, or a hostname and port (hostname:port), in order
to connect a remote host via a TCP socket.
This allows an administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands
through the given socket.
-u user/mask
Run the command only for the given user. It's also possible to
use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u *@example.org).
When neither the -A option nor -u user was specified, the com-
mand will be executed with the environment of the currently
logged in user.
ARGUMENTS
scriptname
Is the name of a Sieve script, as visible to ManageSieve
clients.
NOTE: For Sieve scripts that are stored on disk, this is the
filename without the ".sieve" extension.
COMMANDS
sieve put
doveadm sieve put [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] [-a] scriptname
This command puts one new Sieve script in the script storage. The
script is read from standard input. If the script compiles success-
fully, it is stored under the provided scriptname . If the -a option
is present, the Sieve script is subsequently marked as the active
script for execution at delivery.
sieve get
doveadm sieve get [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command retrieves the Sieve script named scriptname.
sieve delete
doveadm sieve delete [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] [-a] scriptname ...
This command deletes one or more Sieve scripts. The deleted script may
not be the active script, unless the -a option is present.
sieve list
doveadm sieve list [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
Use this command to get an overview of existing Sieve scripts.
sieve rename
doveadm sieve rename [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] old_name new_name
The sieve rename command is used to rename the Sieve script old_name to
new_name.
sieve activate
doveadm sieve activate [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command marks the Sieve script named scriptname as the active
script for execution at delivery.
sieve deactivate
doveadm sieve deactivate [-A|-u user] [-S socket_path] scriptname
This command deactivates Sieve processing.
