This is a GPL managesieve server. It uses a plug-in architecture to support different authentication, homedir lookup, and storage back-ends.
I wrote this so I could use avelsieve (SquirrelMail) with Postfix and Dovecot. It should work with other managesieve clients too. Please share with me your successes and failures.
The server ships with the following plug-ins:
Authentication:
Homedir lookup & session initiation:
Storage:
Additional back-ends are easy to write, just copy one of the existing back-ends and start hacking. No modifications are needed to any existing code, so you don't have to worry about things like the managesieve protocol or forking.
Version 1.0 was released on May 10, 2008 after release candidate 3 had been out for 6 weeks with no bug reports.
You can get the latest version as a tarball, or with git:
git clone http://woozle.org/~neale/repos/pysieved
A web view of revisions is also available for those without git.
Put all the files somewhere. I put mine in /usr/local/lib/pysieved. Copy pysieved.ini into /usr/local/etc/, and edit to taste. It's commented.
To run from inetd, add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf:
sieve stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/python python /usr/local/lib/pysieved/pysieved.py --inetd
To run as a daemon, just run
python pysieved.py
If you use pysieved, please join the pysieved mail list by emailing pysieved-subscribe@woozle.org or visiting the subscription page.
