A client for the ManageSieve protocol, + as specifed in RFC 5804. Historically, this was MANAGESIEVE as + implemented by timsieved in Cyrus IMAP. This software is licensed + and the terms are provided in the file "LICENSE" as supplied + with this software (BSD license without the advertising clause). + + SIEVE is an RFC-specified language for mail filtering, which at + time of writing is specified in a list of RFCs at the end of this + document, plus various drafts, both IETF and individual submissions. + It's designed to be regular enough for machines to be able to + manipulate, whilst still being editable by humans. Alas, not many + clients actually implement this instead of embedding their own + internal codes in sieve comments, defeating the goal of being able + to edit with a client of your choice. + + This is not yet fully compatible with RFC 5804, but is moving + towards that from the timsieved baseline; some issues to be + worked on are documented in the "TODO" file. + + sieve-connect speaks ManageSieve and supports TLS for connection + privacy and also authentication if using client certificates. + sieve-connect will use SASL authentication; SASL integrity layers + are not supported, use TLS instead. GSSAPI-based authentication + should generally work, provided that client and server can use a + common underlaying protocol. If it doesn't work for you, please + report the issue. + + sieve-connect is designed to be both a tool which can be invoked + from scripts and also a decent interactive client. It should also + be a drop-in replacement for "sieveshell", as supplied with Cyrus + IMAP. + </longdescription> + <upstream> + <bugs-to>https://github.com/syscomet/sieve-connect/issues</bugs-to> + <remote-id type="github">syscomet/sieve-connect</remote-id> + </upstream> +</pkgmetadata> |
