Global Sieve scripts?

[Ana Ribas/Upcnet]

This example works for me.

I use "unixhierarchysep: yes" in my /etc/imapd.conf

The sieve filter moves a spam message to the Spam folder.
I have the script /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/scripts/spam-sieve.script.
This is the code:

      require ["fileinto"];

      if header :contains "Subject" "[SPAM]"
      {
              fileinto "Spam";
      }

Now I compile the script:

> /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/sievec spam-sieve.script spam-sieve.bc
> chmod 600 spam-sieve.*
> chown cyrus:mail spam-sieve.*

I active this filter everytime I create a mailbox:

> more active-filter.sh
INITIAL=`echo $1 | cut -c1`
NAME=`echo $1 | cut -f1 -d'.'`
LASTNAME=`echo $1 | cut -f2 -d'.'`
FULLNAME=`echo $NAME"^"$LASTNAME`
cd /var/sieve/$INITIAL/
mkdir $FULLNAME
chown cyrus:mail $FULLNAME
cd /var/sieve/$INITIAL/$FULLNAME/
ln -s /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/scripts/spam-sieve.bc defaultbc
echo "Activated defaultbc filter to $FULLNAME"

 I hope that this helps you.

This may be the wrong list to ask in, if so, please point me to the
right one.

I'm wondering if there's a way to have a "global" sieve script that
takes some action on ALL the hosted e-mail addresses on the system?
