Tárgy: [Fwd: Re: [exim] Sieve Filters] handling of inbox.xyx.uvw...
Hi everybody,
in the meantime I learnt some things:
Sieve Filterfiles don't work with file that contain CRLF instead only of
LF (\r\n). With such a file from a not unix environment I got 'syntax
error' while testing the file with exim4 -bf ....
I'm working with exim 4.50-8 with debian .

The inbox-handling with a construction like
address_file:
...
directory = ${if eq{$address_file}{inbox} \
      {/home/virtual_mail/${lookup pgsql {PGSQL_Q_BOXNAME}{$value}}/}}
maildir_format
...
works fine but:
how to handle inbox with subdirs such as inbox.xyz.uvw???
A construction to isolate the subdirs out of $address_file  such as
${sg {$address_file}{inbox}{}} and adding this to the path of the
mailbox leads to "appendfile: file or directory name "" is not absolute".


Many thanks
Rainer Sigl

Did you quote the exact filter contents? The above works for me.
Which version do you use?

The example from doc/README.SIEVE might help to get the idea:

begin transports

localuser:
   driver = appendfile
   file = ${if eq{$address_file}{inbox} \
               {/var/mail/$local_part} \
               {${if eq{${substr_0_1:$address_file}}{/} \
                     {$address_file} \
                     {$home/mail/$address_file} \
               }} \
          }
   delivery_date_add
   envelope_to_add
   return_path_add
   mode = 0600


Absolute files are stored where specified, relative files are stored
relative to $home/mail and "inbox" goes to the standard mailbox location.
