Sieve Howto

[Robert]

Cool!  I tried it on my server and now it works great.  Before I posted for
help, I used a script and called it defaultbc.  Cyrus was complaining that
the file was not a bytecode file.  I ended up having to add an entry in
/etc/servives and using sieveshell like you suggested.

Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Bob
