Hi all,
I use Dovecot 2.1.7 on debian squeeze with Sieve plugin. Sieve rules are
working nicely if I use the rules in user directories. But if I want to
use global rule it's not working. My configuration is below,

/etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-sieve.conf :
plugin {
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve
sieve_global_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve/
}

/etc/dovecot/sieve/dovecot.sieve :

require ["fileinto"];
# rule:[test]
if header :contains "From" "abc.com"
{
fileinto "INBOX.Junk";
}

This rule is working in the user directory.

Regards,

Your configuration is wrong.
sieve_global_dir =

Directory for :global include scripts for the include extension. The
Sieve interpreter only recognizes files that end with a .sieve
extension, so the include extension expects a file called name.sieve
to exist in the sieve_global_dir directory for the following
example:

You want:
sieve_before =

Path to a script file or a directory containing script files that
need to be executed before the user's script. If the path points to
a directory, all the Sieve scripts contained therein (with the
proper .sieve extension) are executed. The order of execution is
determined by the file names, using a normal 8bit per-character
comparison.

Thanks for the answer.
I tried some different scenarios. But I couldn't run the script. I have
commented "sieve_global_dir" parameter.

My new configuration is below :

plugin {
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve

sieve_before = /etc/dovecot/sieve/spam.sieve

/etc/dovecot/sieve/spam.sieve (I have compiled manually by sievec) :

require "fileinto";
if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" ["YES"] {
fileinto "Junk";
stop;

}

Sorry for the late reply, do you see any errors in your mail.log or any
other error log defined with dovecot?

How can I write sieve log messages into the log file?

According to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Configuration,
set sieve_user_log (it'll be ~/.dovecot.sieve.log by default).

I know this but " sieve_user_log" is user log path. I want to logging everything for the global rule (info, warning and errors). My global rule not working but I don't know why not working it is.
