Hello everyone.

I have dovecot version 1.2.8 installed from source. This morning I installed the sieve plugin to sort emails, and though the install reported no errors, the plugin doesn't seem to function, and no mention of it is made in the logs when I turn on verbose logging.

dovecot --version
1.2.8

dovecot -n

Here is the config.log from sieve

root@myplace:/usr/local# head dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.19/config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by Dovecot Sieve configure 0.1.19, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.67.  Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot-1.2.8/

That compiled cleanly, then make and make install also proceeded without error.

With verbose logging enabled, the only times "sieve" appeared in the logs was when I tried to load it as a plugin for imap -

grep sieve /var/log/qmail/qmail-dovecot/current |tai64nlocal
2013-05-14 09:20:05.091635500 FPlugin sieve not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap 2013-05-14 09:20:06.120848500 FPlugin sieve not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap 2013-05-14 09:20:07.142465500 FPlugin sieve not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap 2013-05-14 09:20:08.164247500 FPlugin sieve not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap

Once I removed it from being loaded as an imap plugin and used it only as an lda plugin, it hasn't appeared in the dovecot logs. It also isn't logging where I asked it to in the config file (log_path: /var/log/qmail/sieve/dovecot.log, or info_log_path: /var/log/qmail/sieve/dovecot.log), but that files was touched and all directories below /var/log/qmail/sieve have the correct permissions for dovecot to write there:

ls -al /var/log/qmail/sieve/
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 dovecot dovecot  4096 May 14 11:04 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 qmaill  root    12288 May 14 11:04 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 dovecot dovecot     0 May 14 11:04 dovecot.log

Can anyone suggest an error they see or what I can do to get my errors with the sieve config logged somewhere?

Thanks for your help and insight.
