User utility for managing sieve scripts

installsieve [ -v name ] [ -l ] [ -p port ] [ -i file ]
    [ -a name ] [ -d name ] [ -m mechanism ] [ -g name ]
    [ -u user ]

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

NOTE:

This program is deprecated. Please use sieveshell

-v name: View script with the given name. The script if retrieved successfully is output to standard output.
-l: List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active an 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 successfully putting the script on the server the script is set active.
-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 strongest authentication mechanism supported by the server is chosen. Specify login to use the LOGIN command instead of AUTHENTICATE.
-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 userid: Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user.
