Hi,
Long ago (more than 2 month ago), I told about a "pipe" plugin I had
written to perform some spam/ham learning (see the attached message).
I'm now proud to say that I can make it available for use by anyone.
You can get it from
http://nicolas.boullis.free.fr/pipe.tar.gz
Note that this is a temporary location. If someone had a good place to
host it, feel free to do (and tell).
I think it would be great if the feature could be merged into dovecot. I
don't care whether my plugin is used or a rewrite is performed...
Cheers,
Nicolas

Hi,
I have written a plugin so that each time a message is added to a
specific box, a program is run and the message is piped into it. Note
that the message is also really added to the box.
I've been using it for nearly 3 month, for spam/ham learning, and have
not had any problem with it. I guess it could also be used to
implement an out box (I remember seeing someone asking for such a
feature on this list). Currently, I use it with a config like this:
(...)
namespace private {
separator = .
location = maildir:/var/mail/%u
inbox = yes
hidden = no
}
namespace public {
separator = .
prefix = learn.
location = maildir:/var/learn/%u
inbox = no
hidden = no
}
(...)
plugin {
(...)
pipe = /var/learn/%u/.spam:spamc -d some.host -L spam
pipe2 = /var/learn/%u/.ham:spamc -d some.host -L ham
(...)
}
Would people be interested by such a feature? If enough people show
some interest, I can try to convince my boss to let me release this
plugin GPL-licensed.
Cheers,
Nicolas Boullis
