3 Installation and Configuration

mailing-lists-sieve is installed with the usual ./confugure && make install paradigm. It depends on liblistserv 1.0, glib >= 2.22.3 and libgsasl > 1.4.

The programme settings are stored in a configuration file. This is ~/.mailing-lists-sieve, or if not found, ${sysconfdir}/mailing-lists-sieve.conf. ${sysconfdir} is specified at `./configure' with --sysconfdir and is usually /etc or /usr/local/etc.

The syntax of the configuration file is explained in the glib manual (http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/stable/ -> Key-value file parser).

Each module in mailing-lists-sieve defines the use of a separate section. Here is a sample configuration file:

     [listserv]
     host=localhost
     user=1@example.org
     password=PW1ATEXAMPLEORG
     capabilities=11
     #port = 2306
     [managesieve]
     host=mail.example.org
     user=sieve
     password=a27yt5>h6
     [timsieved_fs]
     sievedir=/usr/sieve
     extensions=notify,reject,envelope
     owner=96
     group=12
