Sieve for shared mailboxes

[Merlin Hartley]

Greetings

I have been managing our mail domain on a cyrus-imap (&exim) server since 2005 and it has always been great for our ~150 users.

Of course, over-time more complexity is always required and I have recently implemented a few shared mailboxes (rather than just sharing user mailboxes).
Inevitably, the users are now asking for an auto-reply to be configured for some of these shared mailboxes…

We are already using sieve scripts (managed with Roundcubemail talking through the firewall to timsieved) so it seems natural to use this technology here too...

I have followed the instructions on this page:
https://cyrusimap.org/imap/admin/sieve.html?highlight=sieve#managing-sieve-scripts

But the last step doesn’t seem to do anything…

So I have a few related questions:

1) how can I query a mailbox to read the flags set by mboxconfig?
2) has anyone got sieve working with shared mailboxes?
3) is it possible to invoke a sieveshell in the context of a shared mailbox?

I seem to have successfully created the global scripts (a ‘global’ folder has appeared in the sievedir) - just can’t seem to attach it to a shared mailbox.

Many thanks!

P.S. Here is some relevant server info:
