3. Managing Sieve

Manage Sieve is a special mode used to display Sieve scripts available on a remote server. It can be invoked with M-x sieve-manage RET, which queries the user for a server and if necessary, user credentials to use.

When a server has been successfully contacted, the Manage Sieve buffer looks something like:

Server  : mailserver:2000

2 scripts on server, press RET on a script name edits it, or
press RET on <new script> to create a new script.
        <new script>
 ACTIVE .sieve
        template.siv

One of the scripts are highlighted, and standard point navigation commands (<up>, <down> etc) can be used to navigate the list.

The following commands are available in the Manage Sieve buffer:

m

Activates the currently highlighted script.

u

Deactivates the currently highlighted script.

C-M-?

Deactivates all scripts.

r

Remove currently highlighted script.

RET

mouse-2

f

Bury the server buffer and download the currently highlighted script into a new buffer for editing in Sieve mode (see section 2. Sieve Mode).

o

Create a new buffer in another window containing the currently highlighted script for editing in Sieve mode (see section 2. Sieve Mode).

q

Bury the Manage Sieve buffer without closing the connection.

?

h

Displays help in the minibuffer.
