NAME
       installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts

SYNOPSIS
       installsieve

DESCRIPTION
       installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server.



OPTIONS
       -v  <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard
       output.

       -l List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of  the  scripts  is  active  a  arrow  is
       printed indicating that it is the active script.

       -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services.

       -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server
       it is overwritten. Upon sucessfully putting the script on the server the script  is  set  active.  If
       <file>  has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since sieve names may not con-tain contain
       tain a '.'.

       -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the  '-l'
       option..

       -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>.

       -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strong-est strongest
       est authentication mechanism is chosen.

       -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a  file
       with that name already exists it is overwritten.

       -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user.
