| This is sieve-connect. A client for the ManageSieve protocol, |
| as specifed in RFC 5804. Historically, this was MANAGESIEVE as |
| implemented by timsieved in Cyrus IMAP. This software is licensed |
| and the terms are provided in the file "LICENSE" as supplied |
| with this software (BSD license without the advertising clause). |
| |
| SIEVE is an RFC-specified language for mail filtering, which at |
| time of writing is specified in a list of RFCs at the end of this |
| document, plus various drafts, both IETF and individual submissions. |
| It's designed to be regular enough for machines to be able to |
| manipulate, whilst still being editable by humans. Alas, not many |
| clients actually implement this instead of embedding their own |
| internal codes in sieve comments, defeating the goal of being able |
| to edit with a client of your choice. |
| |
| This is not yet fully compatible with RFC 5804, but is moving |
| towards that from the timsieved baseline; some issues to be |
| worked on are documented in the "TODO" file. |
| |
| sieve-connect speaks ManageSieve and supports TLS for connection |
| privacy and also authentication if using client certificates. |
| sieve-connect will use SASL authentication; SASL integrity layers |
| are not supported, use TLS instead. GSSAPI-based authentication |
| should generally work, provided that client and server can use a |
| common underlaying protocol. If it doesn't work for you, please |
| report the issue. |
| |
| sieve-connect is designed to be both a tool which can be invoked |
| from scripts and also a decent interactive client. It should also |
| be a drop-in replacement for "sieveshell", as supplied with Cyrus |
| IMAP. |
