Pigeonhole Installation
Contents
Getting the sources
You can download the latest released sources from the Pigeonhole download page.
Alternatively, you can get the sources, including the most recent unreleased changes, from the the Mercurial repository:
hg clone http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.0-pigeonhole
Compiling
If you downloaded the sources using Mercurial, you will need to execute ./autogen.sh first to build the automake structure in your source tree. This process requires autotools and libtool to be installed.
If you installed Dovecot from sources, Pigeonhole's configure script should be able to find the installed dovecot-config automatically:
./configure make sudo make install
If this doesn't work, you can use --with-dovecot=<path> configure option, where the path points to a directory containing dovecot-config file. This can point to an installed file:
./configure --with-dovecot=/usr/local/lib/dovecot make sudo make install
or to Dovecot source directory that is already compiled:
./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot-2.0.0/ make sudo make install
IMPORTANT: You need to recompile Pigeonhole when you upgrade Dovecot to a new version, because otherwise the Sieve interpreter plugin will fail to load with a version error.
Prebuilt Binaries
ArchLinux
Pidgeonhole is available in the community repositories, and can be installed by running:
pacman -S pigeonhole
RHEL 6 + clones (CentOS, Scientific Linux, ...)
Pidgeonhole is available in the main repository, and can be installed by running:
yum install dovecot-pigeonhole
Debian
Starting with Debian Wheezy, Pigeonhole binaries are distributed in separate packages: dovecot-sieve for the Sieve interpreter and dovecot-managesieved for the ManageSieve service. You can install these by running:
apt-get install dovecot-sieve dovecot-managesieved
Older Debian releases have Sieve and ManageSieve support included in the main dovecot-common package, meaning that this is always available for those releases once Dovecot is installed.
openSUSE
It is part of the dovecot (dovecot21) rpm. There is no need to install additional packages.
OpenBSD
Pidgeonhole can be installed from packages by running:
pkg_add dovecot-pigeonhole
