Hi,

F.Y.I.

I and atleast 2 other  installations are using Sieve as the backend 
integrated into IMP 2.3 for over 6 months now.

There are two modules that we have had been using.

One called sieve-php.lib (by Dan Ellis)
This one is a pure Sieve module and can go into PEAR.
If you want to study it:
http://webmail.ispman.org/horde/imp/lib/sieve-php.lib


The other library is called
cyrus_sieve.lib (by Didi Rieder) which has imp specific functions.
This one can get integrated as one of the filtering backend in IMP.
Again, some candy for the eye: 
http://webmail.ispman.org/horde/imp/lib/cyrus_sieve.lib.phps


There have been some discussions about this on this list (you can find 
them at marc), but until now no-one has come up with a shoe that will 
fit all.

So those of us who are using sieve have to do this integration manually.

Perhaps once the final 3.0 is released, someone will release a patch to 
replace the current filters functionality with Sieve filters, forward 
and auto-responder functionality.

best regards,
