Which Pigeonhole Sieve extension should I use to process/test a

The reason I want to perform this test is that I have
configured my MTA
to deliver "outgoing" e-mails to my "Sent" IMAP folder, and
these
messages arrive unread. I would like to mark them as read using
Sieve.
er, I guess, "message is in a particular mailbox" is meaning it
to be
spooled, or something like that, right?
Do you use subaddressing (aka +addressing, +detail addressing)?
Then look
here:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples#Plus_Addressed_mail_filtering
If you want to resolve the question in the second paragraphe,
search the
mailing list archive about how to get the name of the mailbox,
the
implicit keep stores the message in. I'm pretty sure, that there
was such
question lately.
If you actually want to resolve the question in the first
paragraphe, to
check whether or not the same message has been spooled in a
folder already
(aka duplicate check), check out the duplicate extension with
":handle"
argument. But you probably need to know the target mailbox, too.
I apologize for not expressing my problem in clear enough terms.
My e-mail server will put sent e-mail to the ~/.Maildir/.Sent
(which is also a Maildir directory); naturally, the e-mail is
first written into ~/.Maildir/.Sent/tmp, and then it's moved to
~/.Maildir/.Sent/new.
After this has happened, I would like Dovecot to run a Sieve
program that will discover that the e-mail is in the "Sent"
folder, and mark it as seen.
To explain what I'm imagining with code:
if folder :is "Sent" {
setflag "\\Seen";
}
So I don't use subaddressing. I always know the target mailbox,
but it's always "Sent" (this is configured in the MTA).
I guess knowing the name of the mailbox that implicit keep stores
the message in would solve my problem.
I'm assuming you are referring to this:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dovecot/pigeonhole/master/doc/rfc/spec-bosch-sieve-dovecot-environment.txt
And in particular this:
"vnd.dovecot.default-mailbox"
The default mailbox that is used by the (implicit) keep
action.
Normally, this will always yield "INBOX", unless this is
changed in the configuration.
It says that this normally will yield "INBOX". Do you, given my
explanation above, think that it would yield "Sent" in my case? If
not, how would I be able to use this?
Thanks a million!
