After upgrading from dovecot 1.2.3, managesieve 0.11.8, sieve 0.1.11 to
dovecot 1.2.9, managesieve 0.11.10 and sieve 0.1.14 users who do not have
sieve rules yet and use managesieve for the first time do trigger error
messages in the log file (for the authenticated user ggg in group syspr):
Jan 4 17:35:26 apollo dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(ggg):
chown(/var/spool/sieve/ggg, -1, 0(root)) failed: Operation not permitted
(egid=203(syspr))
Jan 4 17:35:26 apollo dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(ggg): sieve-storage:
sieve_storage_verify_dir(/var/spool/sieve/ggg/tmp) failed: Operation not
permitted
Jan 4 17:35:26 apollo dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(ggg): Fatal: Failed to create
sieve storage with data: /var/spool/sieve/ggg
Anyway the filter rules get created (used avelsieve) and the filter does
get compiled when the first mail hits the rule. Subsequent invocations of
managesieve do not try to change the group ownership of the directory.
Looks like an annoyance only, but I would feel more comfortable w.o. the
error messages.
the dovecot -n output:
