I have Exim, which does its usual thing, and the LDA is Dovecot (IMAPS). Up to this point, I have used Thunderbird/Icedove as the MUA, but there have been problems, as we have discussed already (not solved yet). I do the road warrior thing from time to time, so have been using Squirrelmail on the laptop (also now on the desktop, because it's the only thing that I can send on). When I try to set lda as a protocol, that is: protocols = imaps managesieve lda I get an error message: Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotFatal: Unknown protocol lda failed! Either one is not supposed to do that, or there's something wrong with how I have lda set up: protocol lda { postmaster_address = [EMAIL PROTECTED] # sieve_global_path = /var/mail/.global.sieve script_path = ~/.dovecot.sieve mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda mail_plugins = cmusieve mail_debug = yes log_path = /var/log/dovecot/deliverlog info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/deliverlog } Managesieve sets up the symlink for ~/.dovecot.sieve OK. However, nothing is in the logs, and there's nothing in /sieve/tmp. Of course, the problem may lie elsewhere. but this seems to me the place to start.
