A client for the ManageSieve protocol, as specifed in +RFC 5804. Historically, this was MANAGESIEVE as implemented by timsieved in +Cyrus IMAP. + +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. + +WWW: http://people.spodhuis.org/phil.pennock/software/ |
