Can not logon to Sieve -- need help

[Su Li]

Hi Scott,

Sorry, but I tried reading the intallsieve.html. It does have the
instruction on directory hash. Is that the ../tools/dohash? I am sure how to
use it. And I didn't find the document for it. 

What I did so far is just install the Cyrus IMAP and created /usr/sieve and
'chmod cyrus /usr/sieve/' 'chgrp mail /usr/sieve'. Right now nothing is in
/usr/sieve directory.

Can you give me some instructions on creating sieve directory? 

Thanks a lot,

Su

Su -

You didn't finish installing cyrus. Make sure you followed the
directions for creating the /usr/sieve directory hash and that all
dirs have the right permissions.
