I've created a dict service that listens on a unix socket and answers
queries for sieve scripts (among other things).
As I understand it (from the source code at
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/tip/src/lib-dict/dict-client.c),
the dict client will unescape \001n, \001t, and \0011 to line feeds,
tabs, and the \001 character respectively.
In my service I am escaping those three characters in my response (if I
don't escape them the line-oriented nature of the protocol causes a
failure for multiline sieve scripts) but every time LDA attempts to
process a sieve script I get an error in the logs (see below) showing
sieve choking on \001 characters.
Is there some configuration value I've missed or something?
