Cyrus + Sieve

Good thinking. I sent a email from a completely new address, and it still didn't work.

I wonder if this has something to do with how Sendmail and Cyrus talk to each other. This production environment was not setup by me, and there is a actual .promailrc script that hands off from sendmail to Cyrus. I wonder if this is causing mail to get malformed, and sieve not handle it.

I saw some other posts online with users talking about this very issue.

I'm not sure how that would affect the vacation portion, but maybe it could be?

Hm, IIRC the duplicate db is always stored in deliver.db.

The thread is already quite long and I don't remember all details. But the
problem you report is very common. Everything works but vacation does not.
It usually boils down to the fact that everything is okay but the tester
thinks it doesn't because he expects a message but cyrus thinks it has
already sent one message.
One thing you might check is your "sendmail" option in imapd.conf. Does it
point to a usable sendmail command which really does the right thing?
