NAME

siesh - interactive sieve shell

SYNOPSIS

$ siesh --debug --user USER --host SERVER --tls {require|auto} --port PORT

DESCRIPTION

Siesh provides a shell-like interface for manipulating sieve scripts using the ManageSieve protocol.

OPTIONS

--debug|-d

Enable debugging.

--user|-u USERNAME

Specifies the username to use when logging into the sieve server. This option defaults to the value of the environment variable USER.

--host|-h HOST

Specifies the machine to connect to. Defaults to imap.

--port|-p PORT

Specifies the remote port to connect to. Defaults to 2000.

--tls|-t {require|auto}

Specifies whether TLS is required ("require") or optional ("auto"). Defaults to unset, disabling TLS.

CONFIGURATION FILE

When siesh is invoked, it first reads configurations variables from /etc/siesh.conf or ~/.siesh.conf if one of these files exist. The file is structured as a set of lines with name and values seperated by an equal sign.

user  = mario
host  = sieve.example.com
port  = 2000
tls   = require
debug = 1

Currently only these two variables are recognized. Values are overriden by options specified on the command line.

COMMANDS

list

Prints a list of all scripts on the server. The currently active script, if any, is marked by a * (astersik).

Synonyms: ls

delete script-name ...

Deletes a script. It's not possible to delete the currently active script, so please use deactivate first. There's no way to undelete a deleted script.

Synonyms: rm

edit script-name

Edits a script on the server without downloading it explicitly to your disk first. Under the hood it creates a temporary file, puts the script content in it and calls $ENV{EDITOR} on it. After that the script is uploaded back. It's also possible to create and edit a new script with this command.

If your script is syntactical incorrect, you will be prompted to re-edit the file or throw away your changes.

activate script-name

Activates the listed script. User may have multiple Sieve scripts on the server, yet only one script may be used for filtering of incoming messages. This is called the active script. Users may have zero or one active scripts

deactivate

Deactivate all scripts. Deactivation of all your scripts results in no filtering at all.

cat script-name ...

Print scripts on the standard output.

quit

Terminates the sessiion with the remote SIEVE server. An end of file will also terminate the session and exit.

help

Print a short description of all commands.

put file-name script-name

Store a local file as script on the remote machine.

get file-name local-name

Retrieve a remote script and store it on the local machine.
