v0.2.5 19-11-2011 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Sieve vacation extension: made discard message for implicit delivery more
verbose
- The sieve-test tool: mixed up original and final envelope recipient in
implementation of command line arguments.
- Sieve vacation extension: resolved FIXME regarding the use of variables in
the :handle argument. Variables are now handled correctly.
- Sieve body extension: fixed handling of :content "message/rfc822". This now
yields the headers of the embedded message as required by the specification.
Handling of :content "multipart" remains to be fixed.
- LDA Sieve plugin: fixed problem with recipient_delimiter configuration. Now
falls back to global recipient_delimiter setting if
plugin/recipient_delimiter is not set.
v0.2.4 13-09-2011 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Vacation extension: finally added support for using the original recipient
in vacation address check. It is also possible to disable the recipient
address check entirely. Check doc/vacation.txt for configuration
information.
+ Include extension: made limits on the include depth and the total number of
included scripts configurable. Check doc/include.txt for configuration
information.
+ Implemented ihave extension. This allows checking for the availability
of Sieve language extensions at 'runtime'. Actually, this is checked
at compile time. At runtime the interpreter checks whether extensions
that were not previously available are still unavailable. If the situation
changed, the script is re-compiled and the ihave tests are evaluated again.
+ Sieve: optimized compilation of tests that yield constant results (i.e.
known at compile tme), such as 'true' and 'false'. No code is produced
anymore for script sections that are never executed. Also, semantics
are not verified anymore in uncompiled script sections.
+ Made vnd.dovecot.debug extension available to the LDA plugin instead of
only the command line tools.
+ Sieve: redirect action now adds X-Sieve-Redirected-From header (mainly for
people using SPF/SRS).
- Sieve: fixed bug in handling flags and keywords; in case of error an
assertion was triggered.
- Script storage: improved handling of unconfigured user home directory.
Originally this would produce an unhelpful error message.
- Imap4flags extension: prevent forcibly enabling imap4flags when imapflags
is enabled.
- Fixed various -Wunused-but-set-variable compiler warnings.
- Include extension: forgot to check variable identifier syntax for 'global'
command.
- Sieve: fixed debug mode; no messages were logged in some situations.
- sievec tool: forgot to enable -D (debug) parameter.
v0.2.3 14-04-2011 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Sieve filter tool: finished implementing basic functionality. It is not
quite ready yet, but it is available for those willing to experiment
with it (needs --with-unfinished-features config to compile). Also
includes man page.
+ Vacation extension now inhibits replies to messages from sender listed
in :addresses, thus preventing replies to one of the user's other known
addresses.
+ Vacation extension: implemented the (draft) vacation-seconds extension.
This also adds min/max period configuration settings. Refer to
doc/vacation.txt for configuration information.
- ManageSieve: fixed bug in UTF-8 checking of string values. This is done
by discarding the original implementation and migrating to the Dovecot
API's UTF-8 functionality.
- Sieve command line tools now avoid initializing the mail store unless
necessary. This prevents sievec and sieve-dump from failing when
executed by root for example.
- Enotify extension: fixed inappropriate return type in mailto URI parse
function, also fixing ARM compiler warning.
- Vacation extension: fixed handling of sendmail errors. It produced an
additional confusing success message in case of error.
- Removed header MIME-decoding to fix erroneous address parsing. Applies to
address test and vacation command.
- Fixed segfault bug in extension configuration, triggered when unknown
extension is mentioned in sieve_extensions setting.
v0.2.2 06-12-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* LDA Sieve plugin: started using Dovecot LDA reject API for the reject
extension. This means that the LDA reject_reason and reject_subject
settings now also work for Pigeonhole's LDA Sieve plugin.
* Did some work on the new sieve-filter tool. It is mostly functional, but
it is not finished yet.
* Dovecot change: services' default vsz_limits weren't being enforced
correctly in earlier v2.0 releases. Now that they are enforced, you might
notice that the default limits are too low and you need to increase them.
This problem will show up in logs as "out of memory" errors. See
default_vsz_limit and service { vsz_limit } settings.
- Imap4flags: fixed segfault bug occuring in multiscript context.
- Added version checking to the ManageSieve settings plugin. This plugin was
forgotten when the LDA plugin was updated with this change in the previous
release.
- LDA Sieve plugin: fixed memory leak at deinitialization.
v0.2.1 27-09-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Incorporated distinction between original and final envelope recipient in
Sieve interpreter, as recently introduced in Dovecot.
+ Regex extension: added support for regex keys composed from variables.
- LDA Sieve plugin: added _version symbol to enable Dovecot's plugin version
check. Without this check, people can forget to recompile the plugin, which
can lead to unexpected effects.
- LDA Sieve plugin: turned debug message about an unconfigured home directory
into a proper error and added script path information.
- Fixed unnecessary reporting of dummy extensions in ManageSieve SIEVE
capability; the comparator-i;octet and comparator-i;ascii-numeric
'extensions' were reported explicitly.
v0.2.0 10-09-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Merged Sieve and ManageSieve packages into a single Pigeonhole package.
There is also no need to patch Dovecot anymore to gain ManageSieve support.
Version numbering of previous Sieve releases is continued as v0.2.0. The
sources originally branched off from Sieve v0.1.5 and ManageSieve v0.11.4,
but the NEWS history of much more recent releases for Dovecot v1.2 is
included since these changes are all included in this release as well.
* The ManageSieve service now binds to TCP port 4190 by default due to the
IANA port assignment for the ManageSieve service. When upgrading from v1.2,
this should be taken into account. The service can be configured manually to
listen on both 2000 and 4190.
* The Dovecot configuration now calls the ManageSieve protocol 'sieve' in
stead of 'managesieve' because it is registered as such with IANA. The
binaries and the services are still called managesieve and
managesieve-login.
* The binary representation of a compiled Sieve script is updated to include
source code locations of all commands and arguments. This is implemented in
a similar manner as such debug information is included in some system
executables and libraries (DWARF-like). Run-time errors can now always refer
to the proper line number in the Sieve source script.
* The Sieve plugin is adapted to work properly with the new LMTP service
introduced with Dovecot v2.0. The same plugin is used for both LDA and LMTP.
* The 'sieve_subaddress_sep' setting for the Sieve subaddress extension is now
known as 'recipient_delimiter'. Although the deprecated sieve_subaddress_sep
setting is still recognized for backwards compatibility, it is recommended
to update the setting to the new name, since the new LMTP service also uses
the recipient_delimiter setting.
* ManageSieve: changed default IMPLEMENTATION capability to from 'Dovecot' to
'Dovecot Pigeonhole'.
* Renamed the sieved tool to sieve-dump. The original name was somewhat
confusing.
* Updated man pages to match style and structure of new Dovecot man pages.
* Made testsuite commands more uniform and cleaned up many of the testsuite
scripts. Some minor new tests were added in the process.
+ Simplified string matching API to use abstract string lists as data sources.
This will also make implementing the index extension easier in the future.
+ Significantly improved trace debugging with the sieve-test tool. The full
execution of the script can be examined, including the matched values and
keys of the respective Sieve test commands. The executed statements are
listed with their line number (and code address when requested). The level
of detail is configurable from the command line.
+ The SIEVE and NOTIFY capabilities reported by the ManageSieve protocol can
now be configured manually. If left unconfigured, the capabilities are
determined from the default Sieve and ManageSieve configuration.
User-specific capabilities aren't reported until after authentication.
+ Significantly improved file error handling. This means that administrators
get a more useful and informative log message when file operations fail. The
most notable example is that when the LDA Sieve plugin is trying to store a
binary for a global script, the resulting failure message also points the
administrator towards pre-compiling the script with sievec.
+ Added runtime argument value checking for several commands (redirect, date
vacation). When variables are used, these checks cannot be performed at
compiletime. A proper runtime error now is produced when invalid data is
encountered.
+ UTF8 validity of fileinto command argument is now checked either at compile
time or at runtime. Previously, it was not checked until the store action
was executed.
+ Validity of IMAP flags for the imap4flags extension is now checked also
at runtime. Previously, it was not checked until the store action was
executed.
+ Simplified and restructured error handling. Also made sure that user-caused
errors are no longer written to the Dovecot master/LDA log.
- Multiscript: fixed duplicate implicit keep caused by erroneous execution
state update.
- Prevented assertion failure due to currupt binary string representation.
If the string was missing a final \0 character an assertion was produced in
stead of a binary corruption error.
- Imap4flags: fixed bug in setflag command; when parameter was a stringlist,
only the last item was actually set.
- Variables extension: fixed :length set modifier to recognize utf8 characters
in stead of octets.
- Testsuite: prevented innocent warning messages, i.e. those that are part of
the test, from showing up by default.
- ManageSieve/Sieve storage: fixed error handling of PUTSCRIPT commmand; save
commit errors would not make the command fail.
- ManageSieve: enforced protocol syntax better with some of the commands; some
commands allowed spurious extra arguments.
- Fixed Sieve script name checking to properly handle length limit and added
0x00ff as invalid character.
- Removed spurious old stdio.h (top) includes; these caused compile issues on
specific systems.
- Fixed default Sieve capability (as reported by ManageSieve): extra
extensions spamtest, spamtestplus and virustest were enabled by default.
These should, however, only be enabled when properly configured and there
is no default configuration.
(Fused Dovecot Sieve and ManageSieve packages into a single Pigeonhole release)
Dovecot Sieve NEWS history:
---------------------------
Dovecot 1.2:
v0.1.17 19-06-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
- Made sure source code positions for compiler messages are recorded at start
of tokens.
- Fixed a few potential memory leaks in the Sieve compiler and the
spam/virustest extensions.
- Made command line tools return proper exit status upon failure.
v0.1.16 30-04-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Finished implementation of spamtest, spamtestplus and virustest extensions.
These are not enabled by default and need to be activated with the
sieve_extensions setting. Documentation available in
doc/spamtest-virustest.txt
+ Vacation extension: the from address of the generated reply is now by
default equal to whatever known recipient alias matched the headers of the
message. If it is one of the aliases specified with :addresses, it is used
in stead of the envelope recipient address that was used before.
+ Restructured and optimized the lexical scanner.
+ Added --with-docs configure option to allow disabling installation of
documentation.
- Accidentally omitted 'extern' in two declarations of global variables in
header files, causing compile failures on certain systems.
- Deprecated imapflags extension: fixed implicit assignment of flags. Turns
out this never really worked, but the effect of this bug was obscured by the
removeflag bug fixed in the previous release.
- Fixed various memset argument mixups in enotify extension. This caused
warnings on certain systems, but luckily no adverse effects at runtime.
v0.1.15 25-01-2010 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Enotify extension:
- Adjusted notify method API for addition of new notification methods.
- Set default importance level to 'normal' (was 'high').
* Include extension: updated implementation towards most recent specification
(all should be backwards compatible):
- Implemented global variables namespace.
- Global command may now appear anywhere in a script.
- Implemented script name checking using the requirements specified in the
ManageSieve draft.
- One issue remains: ManageSieve currently requires included scripts to be
uploaded first, which is not according to specification.
* Changed envelope path parser to allow to and from envelope addresses that
have no domain part.
+ Added preliminary support for Sieve plugins and added support for installing
Sieve development headers.
+ Started work on the implementation of the spamtest, spamtestplus and
virustest extensions (unfinished).
+ Deprecated notify extension: implemented denotify command.
+ Variables extension: added support for variable namespaces.
+ Added configurable script size limit. Compiler will refuse to compile files
larger than sieve_max_script_size.
+ Testsuite changes:
- Added support for changing and testing an extension's configuration.
- Added a command line parameter for copying errors to stderr.
- Fixed a bug in the i;ascii-numeric comparator. If one of the strings started
with a non-digit character, the comparator would always yield less-than.
- Imap4flags extension: fixed bug in removeflag: removing a single flag failed
due to off-by-one error (bug report by Julian Cowley).
- Improved EACCES error messages for stat() and lstat() syscalls and slightly
improved error messages that may uccur when saving a binary.
- Vacation extension: fixed typo in runtime log message (patch by Julian
Cowley).
- Fixed use of minus '-' in man pages; it is now properly escaped.
- Fixed parser recovery. In particular cases it would trigger spurious errors
after an initial valid error and sometimes additional errors were
inappropriately ignored.
v0.1.14 19-12-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Made the imposed limits on the number of redirects and the number of
actions configurable. The settings are called sieve_max_actions and
sieve_max_redirects.
* Did a major rework of extension handling, making sure that no global state
is maintained. This change was triggered by problems that global state info
would cause for Dovecot v2.0, but it is also important for v1.2 as it
significantly cleans up the library implementation.
+ Made LDA Sieve plugin recognize the deliver_log_format setting.
+ Message headers produced from user-supplied data are now RFC2047-encoded if
necessary for outgoing messages. This is for example important for the
:subject argument of the vacation action.
+ Added support for the $text$ substitution in the deprecated notify
extension.
+ The subaddress extension now also accepts recipient_delimiter setting as an
alias for sieve_subaddress_sep setting. This anticipates the
recipient_delimiter setting in v2.0.
- Fixed logging of mailbox names. It logged the converted mUTF7 version in
stead of the original UTF8 version supplied by the user.
- Fixed a minor memory leak in the multiscript support.
- Fixed a bug in the recompilation of Sieve scripts. Made sure that scripts
are only recompiled when the script file - or the symlink pointing to it -
is strictly newer.
v0.1.13 18-10-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Body extension: implemented proper handling of the :raw transform and added
various new tests to the test suite. However, :content "multipart" and
:content "message/rfc822" are still not working.
+ Fixed race condition occuring when multiple instances are saving the same
binary (patch by Timo Sirainen).
+ Test suite: added support for testing multiscript execution.
- Made compiler more lenient towars missing CRLF at the end of the script in a
hash comment.
- Body extension: don't give SKIP_BODY_BLOCK flag to message parser, we want
the body! (patch by Timo Sirainen).
- Fixed handling of implicit side effects for multiscript execution.
- Fixed bugs in multiscript support; subsequent keep actions were not always
merged correctly and implicit side effects were not always handled
correctly.
- Fixed a segfault bug in the sieve-test tool occuring when compile fails.
- Fixed segfault bug in action procesing. It was triggered while merging side
effects in duplicate actions.
- Fixed bug in the Sieve plugin that caused it to try to stat() a NULL path,
yielding a 'Bad address' error.
v0.1.12 21-08-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Testsuite: added support for testing binaries stored on disk.
+ Implemented the new date extension. This allows matching against date values
in header fields and the current date at the time of script evaluation.
v0.1.11 08-08-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Built skeleton implementation for the date extension (RFC 5260). It
compiles, but it does not do anything useful yet. Therefore, it is not part
of the default compilation.
- Fixed ARM portability issues caused by char type not being signed on that
platform. Reading optional operands from a binary would fail for action side
effects. Also, an accidental mixup of an int return type with bool caused
the interpreter to continue on ARM even though an error occured.
- Removed direct stdint.h includes to prevent portability issues.
- Fixed segfault bug in the handling of script open failures.
- Include: improved user error messages and system log messages.
- Fixed copy-paste mixup between sieve_after and sieve_before settings in the
LDA Sieve plugin. If only a sieve_after script was active, nothing would
have been executed. Patch by Mike Abbott.
- Include: fixed a bug in HOME substitution in the sieve_dir path. Surfaced in
ManageSieve.
v0.1.10 03-08-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Changed action execution of fileinto and keep. These changes depend on API
additions in Dovecot, making this release depend on Dovecot v1.2.2 or newer.
* Further developed the sieve-filter command line tool. This required a few
changes to the action execution of the Sieve engine. The tool was
successfully tested on folders with a few 100k spam messages. However, the
commandline options are still incomplete, a man page is missing and it needs
much more testing before I can recommend anyone to use this tool.
+ Added support for the mailbox extension. This allows checking whether a
mailbox exists using the mailboxexists command and it adds the :create
argument to the fileinto command to create the mailbox when it is missing.
The :create feature is useless unless the Deliver LDA is run with the -n
option.
+ Improved the testsuite with tests for message delivery. Messages stored
using keep and fileinto can be fed back into the Sieve engine for
verification. This includes testing of applied IMAP flags.
+ Updated the man pages with the new method of specifying the supported
extensions using + and - (for the -x parameter of the sieve tools)
+ Further developed the deprecated notify extension. A dummy for the denotify
command exists, meaning that its use does not cause an error anymore.
- Fixed a bug in the derivation of the binary path from the script path. A
bare filename would yield a path relative to root.
- Fixed a bug in the value matching code. The context data now uses a proper
pool in stead of the data stack. Bug reported by Jan Sechser.
- Fixed assertion fail in the include extension caused by missing
initialization upon binary load. This bug surfaces only for stored
binaries. Bug reported by Tom Hendrikx.
- Fixed include error message for failed :global include. It mentioned the
wrong config parameter.
- Fixed broken wiki reference in an error message of the plugin about the
'sieve' setting.
- Fixed behavior of fileinto when delivering into a namespace prefix.
Previous fix used the wrong storage.
v0.1.9 22-07-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Removed the unfinished sieve-filter tool from the default build. It is now
only built when the --with-unfinished-features switch is supplied during
configure.
+ Started building support for the ereject version of the reject action,
which has a preference to use an SMTP/LMTP protocol error in stead of a
bounce message. This is to be used to make the Sieve plugin honour Deliver's
-e parameter. This is not yet finished and not built by default.
+ Improved 'Permission denied' error messages just like Dovecot does,
precisely specifying what permission is missing to access or create a file.
+ Added additional headers to the list of allowed headers for the address
test. The restrictive nature of the address test is not always appropriate.
Still thinking of a better, less restrictive implementation.
+ Made the deprecated notify extension compatible with the old CMUSieve
plugin. However, the denotify command and the $text$ substitution are not
yet supported.
+ Made the discard action log a message to avoid confusion about disappearing
messages.
- Fixed behavior of fileinto when delivering into a namespace prefix. It now
uses silent delivery into INBOX as fallback.
- Fixed logging of folder namespace prefix upon delivery into a prefixed
namespace. Formerly it only logged the bare folder name.
- Fixed a potential segfault in the argument validation. It didn't surface
because no command could have a :tag followed by an associated parameter as
last argument.
- Fixed segfault bug occuring in envelope test when performed on null (<>)
envelope path. The fix involves a rather large restructuring of the code to
make sure envelope addresses are properly handled everywhere (bug reported
by Nikita Koshikov)
- Envelope: fixed bug in application of address parts; failure to obtain
the part would cause inappropriate match success (bug reported by Ron Lee)
- Fixed extension conflict checks during validation. It could sometimes
produce useless errormessages. This is currently only used by the
deprecated extensions.
- Forgot to remove old explicit storage library dependency (patch by
Arkadiusz Miskiewicz).
- Fixed compiler warnings on certain platforms regarding the use fwrite for
outgoing message construction
v0.1.8 12-07-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
- Fixed AIX compile problem. For portability, the typeof operator is
not used anymore.
+ Added partial support for the deprecated notify extension. However, it
turns out that the implementation provided by cmusieve is even older (2001),
meaning that this is currently not backwards compatible with cmusieve.
v0.1.7 05-07-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
+ Added support for CRLF line breaks in strbuf error handler to fix a
ManageSieve problem.
+ Improved consistency of sieve tool documentation and fixed missing
parameters in internal tool help output.
+ Enhanced extensions configuration, allowing to specify the enabled
extensions relatively to the default (patch by Steffen Kaiser).
- Forgot to initialize script execution status in Sieve plugin, causing
segfaults on compile errors in specific conditions.
- Fixed logging in Sieve plugin for execution of default main script (went
to STDERR).
v0.1.6 18-06-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Adjusted to changes in Dovecot to make it compile against v1.2.rc5
* Made default of sieve_dir setting match the ManageSieve implementation.
- Fixed a few problems in de body extension that caused assert failures in
specific situations.
v0.1.5 18-04-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Ported the implementation of the Sieve include extension to the latest
draft. This means that the import and export commands are replaced by a new
command called global. The import and export commands are now DEPRICATED and
are mere aliases for the global command. The new specification also adds the
:once modifier to the include command. The also newly specified global.*
variable namespace is not implemented yet as support for variable namespaces
is currently missing.
* Did a major rework of the multiscript support for better error handling and
made sure that persistent global scripts (sieve_before/sieve_after) are
always executed, even when the user does not have a script of his own and
a global default is missing.
+ Provided basic support for the environment extension. Currenly, the name,
version and host items are useful. Others are pending.
+ Improved error message that is presented when an unknown Sieve extension is
provided as argument to the require command. It now notifies the user that
Sieve core commands do not need to be specified in require.
- Fixed bug in includes at levels deeper than one.
- Fixed bug in address matching that was caused by the failure to handle group
specifications. In dovecot, these are marked by address items with NULL
elements, which causes a segfault if not considered. The group 'undisclosed-
recipients:;' in particular triggered this bug. Bug reported by Bernhard
Schmidt.
v0.1.4 21-03-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Started work on the sieve-filter tool. With this command line tool it will
be possible to (re-)apply Sieve filters on a mail folder. It is currently
undocumented and far from functional.
+ Added a custom debug extension that provides the possibility to print debug
messages from scripts executed by the Sieve tools.
- Fixed issue with opening relative paths as a mail file. Bug reported by Ian
P. Christian.
- Fixed MAC OSX compile problem. Turns out the extern modifier was missing at
multiple places. Bug reported by Edgar Fuss.
- Fixed Solaris compile problem: removed unecessary and unportable linker
flags that caused compile to fail. Bug reported by Andrés Yacopino.
v0.1.3 12-02-2009 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Adapted to changes in Dovecot, making this release dependent on Dovecot
>= 1.2.beta1
* Made mail address comparison fully case-insensitive. This is particularly
noticeable for the :addresses argument of the vacation command.
+ Finished enotify extension. Currently, only the mailto notification method
is implemented. All still needs to be tested thoroughly.
+ Implemented multiscript support. It is now possible to execute multiple
Sieve scripts sequentially. Administrator-controlled scripts can be
executed before and after the user's script. Still needs to be tested
thoroughly.
+ Implemented support for configuring the available Sieve extensions.
+ Made the subaddress extension (partially) configurable using the
sieve_subaddress_sep setting, which allows specifying a (multi-charater)
separator other than '+'.
+ Compiler now warns about invalid header field names used for the header and
address tests.
+ Vacation extension now properly generates a References header for the
response message.
+ Added testing of basic result execution to the test suite. Also added
supportfor testing the outgoing messages produced by the Sieve interpreter.
+ Included execution of the actual result in the sieve-test command line tool.
The undocumented sieve-exec tool that existed for this is now removed as
planned.
+ Added support for the now obsolete 'imapflags' extension for backwards
compatibility with CMUSieve. This also implements the mark/unmark commands.
- Fixed bugs in the regex extension: 1) if an optional match value did not in
fact match, subsequent match values would get unexpected indexes. 2) fixed
segfault bug occuring when regex is freed.
- Fixed bug in the use of the :from agrument for the vacation command. If this
address included a phrase part, the response would not be a valid RFC822
message.
- Plugged a theoretical security hole occuring when a directory is opened as a
Sieve binary.
- Cleaned up and fixed various log messages.
- Fixed bug in the outgoing address verification. Addresses ending in ',' were
erroneously accepted.
v0.1.2 26-11-2008 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
- Fixed important bug in the redirect action (and probably other actions like
reject and vacation that only send messages). This was a bug in the handling
of context information during the execution of actions. It caused the sieve
interpreter to crash with a segfault when redirect was executed.
v0.1.1 24-11-2008 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Re-enabled support for compiling against dovecot headers. Much like
cmusieve, command line tools like sievec and sieved are not compiled in this
case.
* Started implementation of enotify extension. Not anywhere near finished
though.
* Adapted to changes in Dovecot on various occasions, making this release
dependent on Dovecot >= v1.2.alpa4.
+ Improved logging of errors at specific occasions and added debug messages to
find script execution problems quicker.
+ Removed code duplication between command line tools and the test suite.
Also restructured the sources of the tools.
+ Added UTF-8 to UTF-7 folder name conversion for compatibility with IMAP.
+ Created man pages for the command line tools. These are automatically
installed upon 'make install'
+ Incorporated Valgrind support into the testsuite and fixed a few memory
leaks in the process.
- Fixed compile error surfacing for gcc3.4. Forgot mask argument for the
open() system call when the O_CREAT flag is specified. Bug found by
Sergey Ivanov.
- Fixed bug in the sievec tool. -d output was always written to stdout.
- Fixed important bug in the imap4flags extension. When no :flags argument is
specified, the previous version would always use the final value of the
internal variable to set the flags. This means that modifications to the
internal variable also affected the bare fileinto/keep actions executed
earlier. This does not comply to the RFC.
- Fixed bug in the include extension's import/export commands. Duplicate
import/exports caused problems.
- Fixed bug in the handling of non-existent scripts. Errors were sometimes
ignored.
- Dovecot omitted unfolding multi-line headers. This was added to the cmusieve
plugin after the code was incorporated into the new implementation. This is
now mplicitly fixed by concurrent change in Dovecot.
v0.1.0 23-10-2008 Stephan Bosch <stephan@rename-it.nl>
* Initial release
Dovecot ManageSieve NEWS history:
---------------------------------
Dovecot 1.2:
v0.11.11:
* This release contains adjustments to match changes in the Sieve API. This
means that this release will only compile against Pigeonhole Sieve
v0.1.15.
+ Implemented ManageSieve QUOTA enforcement.
+ Added MAXREDIRECTS capability after login.
+ Implemented new script name rules specified in most recent ManageSieve
draft.
- Fixed assertion failure occuring with challenge-response SASL mechanisms.
- Made configure complain about trying to compile against installed Dovecot
headers alone.
- Fixed compile warning for compilation against CMUSieve.
v0.11.10:
* This release contains adjustments to match changes in the Sieve API. This
means that this release will only compile against Pigeonhole Sieve
v0.1.14.
- Fixed compilation of ManageSieve against CMUSieve.
v0.11.9:
* Adjusted to changes in the Dovecot login proxy API. This release
therefore depends on Dovecot v1.2.4.
+ Reintroduced ability to abort SASL with "*" response. Latest ManageSieve
specification includes it.
v0.11.8:
- Fixed TLS support for proxying ManageSieve. The protocol state machine
was incorrect. Also added a check that disables ssl when 'starttls' is
not enabled for the user. This produces a proper warning in the log file.
There is no such thing as a managesieveS protocol which has SSL from the
start.
v0.11.7:
* Adjusted to changes in the Dovecot login API. This release now depends on
Dovecot v1.2.1 or newer.
* Incorporated various small changes in IMAP into ManageSieve. This includes
properly enabling the generation of core dumps.
- The previous release implicitly resolved the FreeBSD script truncation
error. This release adds a small correction to the code that detects the
truncation.
- Fixed panic occurring when many errors are produced by the Sieve compiler
(bug found by Pascal Volk).
- Fixed memory leak in the PUTSCRIPT command.
v0.11.6:
* Adjusted to changes in Dovecot regarding client idle timeout vs
authentication timeout. This release now depends on Dovecot v1.2.rc6 or
newer.
- Fixed CRLF line breaks in compile errors (bug reported by Pascal Volk).
- Corrected directory/file creation behavior with respect to mode bits
and gid (bug reported by Pascal Volk).
- Improved handling of script truncation bugs: connection is now closed and
an error is logged. bug itself not fixed yet).
- Prevented temp script name from showing up in error output.
v0.11.5:
* Incorporated various changes from imap-login into managesieve-login. This
includes changes in the proxy support.
v0.11.4:
* Adjusted to changes in the Dovecot signal handler API.
v0.11.3:
* Changed the SASL service name from "managesieve" into "sieve" as required
in the protocol specification. Don't forget to adjust your configuration
if your authentication mechanism depends on this service name.
* Adapted to changes in Dovecot, making this release dependent on Dovecot
>= v1.2.beta1.
* Adapted to changes in the new Sieve implementation, making this release
dependent on Dovecot Sieve >= v0.1.3 if used. The old cmusieve plugin is
still supported.
+ Implemented making the SIEVE and NOTIFY capability fully dynamic, meaning
that the sieve_extensions setting that was introduced for the new Sieve
plugin properly affects the ManageSieve daemon as well.
+ Added support for the CHECKSCRIPT command. In terms of the supported
commands, the ManageSieve daemon now complies with protocol VERSION 1.0 as
listed in the CAPABILITY response.
- Fixed maximum permissions for uploaded scripts; was 0777. This
was shielded however by the default umask (not documented to be
configurable), so the actual permissions would never have been 0777.
- Fixed a segfault bug in the authentication time-out. Bug report and trace
provided by Wolfgang Friebel.
- Fixed handling of ~/ in use of mail-data for script location.
- Fixed small problems in the login proxy support.
v0.11.2:
* Adapted to changes in Dovecot, making this release dependent on Dovecot
>= v1.2.alpa4.
v0.11.1:
- Fixed security issue that gives virtual users the ability to read and
modify each other's scripts if the directory structure of the sieve
storage is known.
* Updated NOOP command to match new protocol specification
+ Improved error handling and implemented the new response codes:
ACTIVE, NONEXISTENT, ALREADYEXISTS and WARNINGS
v0.11.0:
* Upgraded to Dovecot v1.2
* Added support for new ManageSieve extensions RENAME and NOOP
* Moved sieve settings to plugin {} section of config file. Now the settings
`sieve` and `sieve_dir` in the plugin section are used for the Sieve plugin
and the ManageSieve service, avoiding the posibility of accidental
differences in configuration.
Dovecot 1.1:
v0.10.3
* Removed erroneous inline declarations that caused compiler warnings. GCC 4.3
turns out to fail entirely as reported by Joel Johnson.
* Fixed auto-dectection of Sieve implementation during ./configure. It now
produces a proper error when the directory is invalid.
v0.10.2
* Fixed bug that caused SASL mechanisms that require more than a single client
response to fail. Reported by Steffen Kaiser and occured when he tried using
the (obsolete) LOGIN mechanism.
* Updated installation and configuration documentation to match the
information provided in the wiki
v0.10.1
* Fixed bug introduced in v0.10.0: compiled scripts were also written to disk
in the sieve/tmp directory and left there. This accumulates much .sievec
junk in that directory over time.
* Fixed bug in tmp file generation for sieve-storage: errors other than EEXIST
would cause the daemon to sleep() loop indefinitely.
+ Improved log lines to be more recognizable as being generated from
managesieve.
+ Added short proxy configuration explanation to the README file
+ Added 'Known Issues' section to the README file
- Fixed assert bug in sieve-storage occuring when save is canceled.
v0.10.0
* Upgraded to Dovecot 1.1:
- The actual managesieve implementation is now a separate package.
The dovecot tree still needs to be patched though to make dovecot
recognize the new managesieve service.
- Incorporated changes to imap/imap-login into the equivalent
managesieve processes.
- Removed cmusieve implementation from managesieve sources. It is
now linked externally from the dovecot-sieve-1.1 package.
- Restructured README.managesieve file into separate README, NEWS,
TODO, DESIGN and INSTALL files.
* Added support for new libsieve implementation (to be released). This
package can be compiled with either the new or the old Sieve
implementation (autodetected). If the new Sieve becomes stable, this
package will be merged with it to make a single package for Dovecot
Sieve support.
Dovecot 1.0:
v9
+ Definitively fixed the segfault mentioned in V8. It proved to be
very time-constrained and thus hard to reproduce. The error turned out
to be related to the input handling of the login daemon during
authentication.
+ Checked for changes in the imap daemon that weren't propagated to the
managesieve implementation due to code duplication.
+ Fixed a bug in the autodetection of the sieve storage location.
+ Fixed bug in the sieve storage that failed to refresh the symlink if
the storage was moved.
+ Improved error handing in the sieve-storage implementation in various
places.
+ Fixed the situation in which the active script link is located in the
sieve storage.
+ Added managesieve configuration to dovecot-example.conf and made the example
in this file more concise.
v8
+ Fixed a few incompatibilities with 1.0.7 version. For instance, the "Logged
in" message is now sent by the -login process and not by the managesieve
daemon anymore. This caused a segfault every once in a while.
+ Probably fixed the settings problem reported by Steffen Kaiser regarding
login_dir. 'dovecot -n' now reports correct results, but testing will show
whether the whole problem is solved.
+ The managesieve daemon now accepts the sieve_storage and sieve configuration
settings, so it is now possible to explicitly configure the location of the
sieve storage and the active script respectively. The daemon still falls back
to using the mail_location (MAIL) settings if nothing else is specified.
+ The cyrus timsieved does not use the + character in string literals and many
clients have adopted to this behaviour. The latest managesieve (08) advises to
accept a missing + from clients. The server should not send any + characters
as well. This behavior is now implemented on the server.
+ Cleaned up sieve-storage.c: split up the sieve_storage_create function in
various sub-functions for obtaining the various paths and directories.
+ Forced manual intervention if rescueing a non-symlink file at the active script
path fails somehow. Previously, this presented the admin with a log message
that it had just eaten the script, which is not very nice.
+ Restructured the README.managesieve file and added some more explanation with
regard to the configuration of the daemon.
v7
- Robin Breathe indicated that the regex capability was missing in the server's
SIEVE listing. It turns out I forgot to make arrangements for setting
ENABLE_REGEX in the cmu libsieve sources, so the regex extension was not
compiled in. I copied the configure.in section regarding ENABLE_REGEX from
dovecot-sieve-1.0.2 and that fixed the problem.
v6
- Corked the client output stream while producing the capability greeting and on
other some other occasions as well. Some naive client implementations expect to
receive this as a single tcp frame and it is a good practice to do so anyway.
Using this change the Thunderbird sieve extension (v0.1.1) seemed to work. However,
scripts larger than a tcp frame still caused failures. All these issues are fixed
in the latest version of the sieve add-on (currently v0.1.4).
- Cleaned up the new proxy source. My editor made the indentation a complete mess
in terms of TABs vs spaces.
- Added TRYLATER response codes to BYE and NO messages where appropriate.
- Recopied the libsieve library into this patch to incorporate any changes that were
made (only sieve-cmu.c still needs to be compared to the old cmu-sieve.c). This
also solves the __attribute__((unused)) GCC dependencies. These were fixed long
ago by Timo.... the code duplication beast strikes again.
- Removed spurious return value from void function in
src/lib-sieve/sieve-implementation.c as reported by Robin Breathe. GCC fails to
report these issues. The function involved is currently not used and serves only
as an example on how dovecot could support multiple sieve backends...
v5
- Applied patch by Uldis Pakuls to fix master_dump_settings bug
- Added some compilation/installation info to this README
- Moved README to source tree root as README.managesieve
- Fixed minor error handling bug in sieve_storage.c with respect to a missing
root directory.
- Now sieve capabilities are reported as they are specified by the implementing
library and not in forced upper case. The sieve RFC now explicitly states
that sieve capability identifiers are case-sensitive. This broke compatibility
with SquirrelMail/Avelsieve.
- Disabled ANONYMOUS login entirely until proper support is implemented. V4
claimed to do so as well, but in fact it only stopped announcing it.
- Implemented managesieve-proxy. It is not so much a clean copy of imap-proxy,
since the managesieve greeting is much more complex and requires parsing.
Configuration is identical to imap-proxy. This seems to be a little under-
documented however (http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields).
v4
- Added managesieve_implementation_string setting to the managesieve
configuration. This can be used to customize the default "IMPLEMENTATION"
capability response.
- Denied ANONYMOUS login until proper support is implemented
- Fixed problem with authenticate command regarding continued responses. In
V3 only initial response would work. Problem was caused by rc2 -> rc28
upgrade. One of the clear reasons why code duplication is a very bad idea.
- Fixed readlink bug as indicated by Timo: return value of readlink can also
be -1.
- Fixed bug in the regular file rescue code, as introduced in the previous
version. Used stat instead of lstat. This caused the symlink to be rescued
subsequently in the next activation, thus still overwriting the initially
rescued script.
v3
- Updated source to compile with dovecot 1.0.rc27
- Daemon now uses the same location for .dovecot.sieve as dovecot-lda
This is typically ~/.dovecot.sieve
- If .dovecot.sieve is a regular file, it is now moved into the script storage as
dovecot.orig.sieve, preventing deletion of (important) active scripts
upon upgrade.
- Changed error handling to yield a BYE message when the managesieve
daemon exits unexpectedly (upon login) before any commands are entered.
Horde-ingo would wait indefinitely for a response.
v2
- Fixed the bug (missing CRLF) in the authenticate command
- Modified the sieve storage library making the interface much less crude.
- The scripts put on the server using the putscript command are now
checked before they are accepted.
- The reported SIEVE capability is now directly read from the sieve
implementation (in this case cmu), listing much more than "FILEINTO
VACATION".
- Imported instance of libsieve source into this patch for implementation
of script checking and capability listing. THIS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED!
- Fixed some minor bugs in the putscript command
