I'm trying to setup sieve on a Debian 9 install with virtual users.
Perhaps I'm getting old, but I can't figure out why managesieve is
not working for virtual users. I have about 20 v users on this machine
and only one has also a real unix account. The sieve rules work for this
single unix account  but not for any other account.


Hmm, your conf contains just one passdb and one userbd:

mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir

sieve =file:/home/vmail/%d/%n/sieve;active=/home/vmail/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve


userdb {
  args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir
  driver = static
}

So, how does the real user authentificate?

Second, you've violated:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home?highlight=%28home%29|%28mail%29

make home and mail_location distinct. I guess, above should read:
home=/home/vmail/%d/%n/

You've wrote "managesieve" is not working. That means, sieve is working?

So, has vmail write permission to : /home/vmail/%d/%n/sieve is it adirectory? Does your users log into managesieve with domain, too?

but nothing is working for my case, so something is wrong in my setup and I
hope you guys might shed some light .

The setup is rather simple it's 20 v users with one public folder , I havetried both

dovecot lda and lmtp .

doveconf -n  included

Thanks in advance for any help
