💖 SIEVEC(8) — the Cyrus IMAP glow-up 💖

okay bestie, welcome to section 8, the sysadmin zone 👑 this is sievec, brought to you by the Cyrus IMAP crew, and she is literally the compiler for your sieve scripts. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

sievec — Cyrus IMAP documentation, babes 🎀

a little script that compiles a sieve script into bytecode. that's it. that's the whole job. and she does it flawlessly 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sievec [ -C altconfig ] filename outputfile

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: sievec takes the script sitting at filename, compiles it into bytecode, and writes that bytecode out to wherever outputfile points. 🫶

script in, bytecode out. compiler behaviour. main character energy. periodt.

💜 OPTIONS 💜

  • -C altconfig — use the configuration file you specify as config-file instead of the default imapd.conf(5). lowkey useful when you're not running on the standard setup ✨
