1. Introduction
JMAP [RFC8620] (JSON Meta Application Protocol) is a generic protocol
for synchronizing data, such as mail, calendars or contacts, between
a client and a server. It is optimized for mobile and web
environments, and aims to provide a consistent interface to different
data types.
This specification defines a data model for managing Sieve [RFC5228]
scripts on a server using JMAP. The data model is designed to allow
a server to provide consistent access to the same scripts via
ManageSieve [RFC5804] as well as JMAP, however the functionality
offered over the two protocols may differ.

Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
1.1. Notational Conventions
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
Type signatures, examples, and property descriptions in this document
follow the conventions established in Section 1.1 of [RFC8620]. Data
types defined in the core specification are also used in this
document.
Servers MUST support all properties specified for the new data type
defined in this document.
For compatibility with publishing requirements, line breaks have been
inserted inside long JSON strings, with the following continuation
lines indented. To form the valid JSON example, any line breaks
inside a string must be replaced with a space and any other white
space after the line break removed.
1.2. Terminology
The same terminology is used in this document as in the core JMAP
specification, see [RFC8620], Section 1.6.
The term SieveScript (with this specific capitalization) is used to
refer to the data type defined in this document and instances of
those data types.
1.3. Addition to the Capabilities Object
The capabilities object is returned as part of the JMAP Session
object; see [RFC8620], Section 2. This document defines one
additional capability URI.
1.3.1. urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve
This represents support for the SieveScript data type and associated
API methods. The value of this property in the JMAP Session
capabilities property is an empty object.
The value of this property in an account's accountCapabilities
property is an object that MUST contain the following information on
server capabilities:
o *supportsTest*: "Boolean"
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
If true, the server supports the SieveScript/test (Section 2.5)
method.
o *maxSizeScriptName*: "UnsignedInt"
The maximum length, in (UTF-8) octets, allowed for the name of a
SieveScript. For compatibility with ManageSieve, this MUST be at
least 512 (up to 128 Unicode characters).
o *maxSizeScript*: "UnsignedInt|null"
The maximum size (in octets) of a Sieve script the server is
willing to store for the user, or "null" for no limit.
o *maxNumberScripts*: "UnsignedInt|null"
The maximum number of Sieve scripts the server is willing to store
for the user, or "null" for no limit.
o *maxNumberRedirects*: "UnsignedInt|null"
The maximum number of Sieve "redirect" actions a script can
perform during a single evaluation or "null" for no limit. Note
that this is different from the total number of "redirect" actions
a script can contain.
o *sieveExtensions*: "String[]"
A list of case-sensitive Sieve capability strings (as listed in
Sieve "require" action; see [RFC5228], Section 3.2) indicating the
extensions supported by the Sieve engine.
o *notificationMethods*: "String[]|null"
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
A list of URI schema parts [RFC3986] for notification methods
supported by the Sieve "enotify" [RFC5435] extension, or "null" if
the extension is not supported by the Sieve engine.
o *externalLists*: "String[]|null"
A list of URI schema parts [RFC3986] for externally stored list
types supported by the Sieve "extlists" [RFC6134] extension, or
"null" if the extension is not supported by the Sieve engine.
2. Sieve Scripts
A *SieveScript* object represents a single Sieve [RFC5228] script for
filtering email messages at time of final delivery.
A *SieveScript* object has the following properties:
o *id*: "Id" (immutable; server-set)
The id of the script.
o *name*: "String|null" (optional; default is server-dependent)
User-visible name for the SieveScript. If non-null, this MUST be
a Net-Unicode [RFC5198] string of at least 1 character in length,
subject to the maximum size given in the capability object. For
compatibility with ManageSieve, servers MUST reject names that
contain control characters. Servers MAY reject names that violate
server policy (e.g., names containing slash (/)). The name MUST
be unique among all SieveScripts within an account.
o *blobId*: "Id"
The id of the blob containing the raw octets of the script.
The script MUST be UTF-8 [RFC3629] content of at least 1 character
in length, subject to the syntax of Sieve [RFC5228]. The script
MUST NOT contain any "require" statement(s) mentioning Sieve
capabiltity strings not present in the capability (Section 1.3.1)
object. Note that if the Sieve "ihave" [RFC5463] capability
string is present in the capability object, the script MAY mention
unrecognized/unsupported extensions in the "ihave" test.
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
o *isActive*: "Boolean" (server-set; default: false)
A user may have multiple SieveScripts on the server, yet only one
script may be used for filtering of incoming messages. This is
the active script. Users may have zero or one active script. The
SieveScript/set (Section 2.2) method is used for changing the
active script or disabling Sieve processing.
2.1. SieveScript/get
This is a standard "/get" method as described in [RFC8620],
Section 5.1. The _ids_ argument may be "null" to fetch all at once.
This method provides similar functionality to the GETSCRIPT and
LISTSCRIPTS commands in [RFC5804].
2.2. SieveScript/set
This is a standard "/set" method as described in [RFC8620],
Section 5.3 but with the following additional request argument, which
may be omitted:
o *onSuccessActivateScript*: "Id|null" (optional)
If "null", the currently active SieveScript (if any) will be
deactivated if and only if all of the creations, modifications,
and destructions (if any) succeed. Otherwise, the id of the
SieveScript to activate if and only if all of the creations,
modifications, and destructions (if any) succeed. (For references
to SieveScript creations, this is equivalent to a creation-
reference, so the id will be the creation id prefixed with a "#".)
If this argument is not present in the request, the currently
active SieveScript (if any) will remain as such.
The id of any activated SieveScript MUST be reported in either the
"created" or "updated" argument in the response as appropriate.
The id of any deactivated SieveScript MUST be reported in the
"updated" argument in the response.
This method provides similar functionality to the PUTSCRIPT,
DELETESCRIPT, RENAMESCRIPT, and SETACTIVE commands in [RFC5804].

Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
Script content must first be uploaded as a blob using either the
standard upload mechanism (see [RFC8620] Section 6.1) or the JMAP
Blob management extension (see [I-D.gondwana-jmap-blob] Section 3.1).
If the SieveScript can not be created or updated because it would
result in two SieveScripts with the same name, the server MUST reject
the request with an "alreadyExists" SetError. An "existingId"
property of type "Id" MUST be included on the SetError object with
the id of the existing SieveScript.
If the SieveScript can not be created or updated because its size
exceeds the "maxSizeScript" limit, the server MUST reject the request
with a "tooLarge" SetError.
If the Sieve Script can not be created because it would exceed the
"maxNumberScripts" limit, the server MUST reject the request with an
"overQuota" SetError.
The active SieveScript MUST NOT be destroyed unless it is first
deactivated in a separate SieveScript/set method call.
The following extra SetError types are defined:
For "create" and "update":
o *invalidScript*:
The SieveScript content violates the Sieve [RFC5228] grammar and/
or one or more extensions mentioned in the script's "require"
statement(s) are not supported by the Sieve interpreter. The
_description_ property on the SetError object SHOULD contain a
specific error message giving at least the line number of the
first error.
For "destroy":
o *scriptIsActive*:
The SieveScript is active.

2.3. SieveScript/query
This is a standard "/query" method as described in [RFC8620],
Section 5.5. A _FilterCondition_ object has the following
properties, either of which may be omitted:
o *name*: "String"
The SieveScript "name" property contains the given string.
o *isActive*: "Boolean"
The "isActive" property of the SieveScript must be identical to
the value given to match the condition.
The following SieveScript properties MUST be supported for sorting:
o *name*
o *isActive*
2.4. SieveScript/validate
This method is used by the client to verify Sieve script validity
without storing the script on the server, providing similar
functionality to the CHECKSCRIPT command in [RFC5804].
The method takes the following arguments:
o *accountId*: "Id"
The id of the account to use.
o *blobId*: "Id"
The id of the blob containing the raw octets of the script to
validate, subject to the same requirements in Section 2.
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
The response has the following arguments:
o *accountId*: "Id"
The id of the account used for this call.
o *error*: "SetError|null"
A "invalidScript" SetError object if the script content is invalid
(see Section 2.2), or "null" if the script content is valid.
As with the SieveScript/set (Section 2.2) method, script content must
first be uploaded as a blob using either the standard upload
mechanism (see [RFC8620] Section 6.1) or the JMAP Blob management
extension (see [I-D.gondwana-jmap-blob] Section 3.1).
2.5. SieveScript/test
This method is used by the client to ask the Sieve interpreter to
evaluate a Sieve script against a set of emails and report the
actions that would be performed for each.
When calling this method the "using" property of the Request object
MUST contain the capabilities "urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve" and
"urn:ietf:params:jmap:mail". The latter is required due to the use
of blob ids which may reference Email objects and the use of the
Envelope object, as described below.
The *SieveScript/test* method takes the following arguments:
o *accountId*: "Id"
The id of the account to use.
o *scriptBlobId*: "String"
The id of the blob containing the raw octets of the script to
validate, subject to the same requirements in Section 2.
o *emailBlobIds*: "Id[]"
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
The ids representing the raw octets of the [RFC5322] messages to
test against.
o *envelope*: "Envelope|null"
Information that the Sieve interpreter should assume was present
in the SMTP transaction that delivered the message when evaluating
"envelope" tests. If "null", all "envelope" tests MUST evaluate
to false. See Section 7 of [RFC8621] for the contents of the
Envelope object.
o *lastVacationResponse*: "UTCDate|null"
The UTC date-time at which the Sieve interpreter should assume
that it last auto-replied to the sender of the message, or "null"
if the Sieve interpreter should assume that it has not auto-
replied to the sender.
The response has the following arguments:
o *accountId*: "Id"
The id of the account used for this call.
o *completed*: "Id[Action[]]|null"
A map of the blob id to a set of _Action_ types for each message
successfully processed by the script, or "null" if none. The
_Action_ data type is a tuple, represented as a JSON array
containing two elements:
1. A "String" *name* of the Sieve action (e.g., "keep").
2. A "String[*]" object containing named *arguments* for that
action (e.g., "flags" or "mailbox").
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
o *notCompleted*: "Id[SetError]|null"
A map of the blob id to a SetError object for each message that
was not successfully processed by the script, or "null" if none.
A "serverFail" SetError (see Section 3.6.2 of [RFC8620]) MUST be
used to indicate a Sieve interpreter run-time error.
The following additional errors may be returned instead of the
"SieveScript/test" response:
o "invalidScript": The script content is invalid (see Section 2.2).
o "notFound": The script referenced by the id could not be found.
o "rateLimit": The number of recent test method calls has reached a
server-defined limit.
o "requestTooLarge": The total number of emailBlobIds exceeds the
maximum number the server is willing to process in a single test
method call.
o "serverFail": The script failed preparation to be executed for
some other reason.
The name to use for each action argument in the response is a direct
mapping of the argument names as given in the specification of each
action. Tagged and optional arguments MUST use the name of the tag,
minus the leading ":". Positional arguments MUST use the name of the
argument inside of the angle brackets ("<" and ">") in the "Usage"
line in the specification for the action.
The JSON data type to use for each argument value is a direct mapping
from its Sieve data type, per the following table:
+-------------+----------------+
| Sieve Type | JSON Type |
+-------------+----------------+
| Number | Number |
| String | String |
| String List | String[] |
| no value | Boolean (true) |
+-------------+----------------+
Recommendations for constructing the list of arguments are as
follows:
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
o Optional arguments in which the value is supplied by the Sieve
interpreter SHOULD be included (e.g., ":from" and ":subject"
arguments to the "vacation" [RFC5230] action).
o Optional arguments in which the value is implicitly supplied by a
Sieve variable SHOULD be included (e.g., "keep" or "fileinto"
actions without an explicit ":flags" argument, but "imap4flags"
[RFC5232] have been set on the internal variable).
o Optional arguments in which the value is the specfied default MAY
be omitted.
o Tagged arguments that are only used to determine whether the
action will be executed and have no impact on the result of the
action MAY be omitted (e.g., ":days" and ":addresses" arguments to
the vacation action).
2.5.1. Example
Assume that the following script has been created and has blob id
"S123".
require [ "imapflags", "editheader", "vacation", "fcc" ];
setflag "$SieveFiltered";
addheader :last "X-Sieve-Filtered" "yes";
vacation :days 3 :fcc "INBOX.Sent" :flags "\\Answered" text:
Gone fishing.
.
;
Assume that the following email has been uploaded and assigned blob
id "B456".
From: "Some Example Sender" <example@example.net>
To: ken@example.com
Subject: test email
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2020 12:11:11 -0500
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
MIME-Version: 1.0
This is a test email.

3. Compatibility with JMAP Vacation Response
Section 8 of [RFC8621] defines a VacationResponse object to represent
an autoresponder to incoming email messages. Servers that implement
the VacationResponse as a Sieve script that resides amongst other
user scripts are subject to the following requirements:
o MUST allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be fetched by the
SieveScript/get (Section 2.1) method.
o MUST allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be [de]activated
via the "onSuccessActivateScript" argument to the SieveScript/set
(Section 2.2) method.
o MUST NOT allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be destroyed
or have its content updated by the SieveScript/set (Section 2.2)
method. Any such request MUST be rejected with a "forbidden"
SetError. A "description" property MAY be present with an
explanation that the script can only be modified by a
VacationResponse/set method.
4. Security Considerations
All security considerations of JMAP [RFC8620] and Sieve [RFC5228]
apply to this specification.
5. IANA Considerations
5.1. JMAP Capability Registration for "sieve"
IANA will register the "sieve" JMAP Capability as follows:
Capability Name: "urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve"
Specification document: this document
Intended use: common
Change Controller: IETF
Security and privacy considerations: this document, Section 4
5.2. JMAP Error Codes Registry
The following sub-sections register two new error codes in the JMAP
Error Codes registry, as defined in [RFC8620].
Murchison Expires June 20, 2021 [Page 22]
Internet-Draft JMAP Sieve December 2020
5.2.1. invalidScript
JMAP Error Code: invalidScript
Intended use: common
Change controller: IETF
Reference: This document, Section 2.2
Description: The SieveScript violates the Sieve grammar [RFC5228]
and/or one or more extensions mentioned in the script's "require"
statement(s) are not supported by the Sieve interpreter.
5.2.2. scriptIsActive
JMAP Error Code: scriptIsActive
Intended use: common
Change controller: IETF
Reference: This document, Section 2.2
Description: The client tried to destroy the active SieveScript.
