Dovecot with ManageSieve Server

PPA description

The Sieve plugin for Dovecot's deliver LDA expects a user's Sieve script to reside somewhere in the user's directory (~/.dovecot.sieve by default). If the user is to be able to change his sieve script, he needs shell or FTP access to his home directory, which is not always desirable. This is especially applicable to mail servers with virtual users. As a solution, the ManageSieve protocol was proposed to manage sieve scripts on the server without the need for direct file system access by the users. Additionally, the Sieve scripts are compiled before they are installed, making sure that the uploaded script is valid. This prevents a user from inadvertently installing a broken Sieve script. The protocol specification still has a draft status, but it is already supported by quite a few (web)mail clients. Dovecot now supports ManageSieve by means of an external patch and package.
