When the lmtpd daemon receives an email message prior to delivering it to the
|
|
|
38f2261 |
INBOX folder of the user, checks if the user has specified sieve filters. If the
|
|
|
38f2261 |
user has specified sieve filters the filters are evaluated. If the message matches
|
|
|
38f2261 |
any of the filters the action that is specified in the filter is executed. If the action
|
|
|
38f2261 |
is FileInto it is stored in the subfolder specified in the filter. If the
|
|
|
38f2261 |
subfolder doesn't exist then the message is sent to the INBOX folder of the user.

With this patch if the folder doesn't exist AND the name of the subfolder is
|
|
|
38f2261 |
specified in the autosievefolders option, OR the anysievefolder is set to
|
|
|
38f2261 |
yes in the cyrus-imap configuration file then the subfolder is created and the mail
|
|
|
38f2261 |
is stored there.

* anysievefolder : 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)
|
|
|
38f2261 |
* autosievefolders : It is a "|" separated list of subfolders of INBOX that will be
|
|
|
38f2261 |
automatically created, if requested by a sieve filter, through the "fileinto"

action. (default = null)

WARNING: anysievefolder, takes precedence over autosievefolders . Which means that if
|
|
|
38f2261 |
anysievefolder is set to "yes", cyrus will create any INBOX subfolder requested, no-matter what the value of autosievefolders is.
