Proposal: Direct Integration of Sieve Support in CyberPanel
Context:
CyberPanel is an excellent choice for web hosting with its user-friendly interface and powerful features. SnappyMail, as the default webmail client, provides a lightweight and efficient way to manage emails. However, adding Sieve for advanced email filtering currently requires several manual steps, which can be time-consuming and complex for users.
Proposal:
To enhance the functionality of CyberPanel and provide a better user experience, I propose integrating Sieve support directly into CyberPanel’s installation process, especially given that SnappyMail is the default email system. This would make advanced email filtering capabilities available out-of-the-box without requiring additional manual setup.
Benefits:
Ease of Use: Users would no longer need to manually edit configuration files, install additional packages, or open firewall ports. This would reduce the complexity and potential for errors during setup.
Time-Saving: Automatically enabling Sieve during the CyberPanel installation would save administrators a significant amount of time, allowing them to focus on other important tasks.
Improved User Experience: With Sieve support integrated, users of SnappyMail can manage email filters directly from the webmail interface without needing to deal with backend configurations.
Consistency: Having Sieve enabled by default would ensure that all CyberPanel installations are consistent, reducing the need for troubleshooting configurations that work differently across different setups.
Implementation:
Here’s how this could be implemented:
Automatic Configuration: During the installation of CyberPanel, include an option to enable Sieve. This option would automatically adjust the dovecot.conf file, install necessary packages, and configure the firewall.
Pre-Configured Dovecot: Modify the Dovecot configuration templates used by CyberPanel to include Sieve settings by default. This can be based on a widely used and tested configuration, ensuring reliability and security.
Web Interface Options: Integrate Sieve management into the CyberPanel or SnappyMail interface, allowing users to create and manage filters directly from their dashboard without needing to interact with configuration files.
Conclusion:
Integrating Sieve support directly into CyberPanel’s installation process would provide a seamless experience for users, enhancing the platform’s capabilities while saving time and reducing complexity. I believe this enhancement would be greatly appreciated by the CyberPanel community and align well with the platform’s goal of providing powerful yet user-friendly web hosting solutions.
