Introduction + + Sieve [RFC5228] is a language for filtering email messages at or + around the time of final delivery. It is designed to be + implementable on either a mail client or mail server. It is meant to + be extensible, simple, and independent of access protocol, mail + architecture, and operating system, and it is intended to be + manipulated by a variety of different user interfaces. + + Some user interface environments have extensive existing facilities + for manipulating material represented in XML [XML]. While adding + support for alternate data syntaxes may be possible in most if not + all of these environments, it may not be particularly convenient to + do so. The obvious way to deal with this issue is to map Sieves into + XML, possibly on a separate back-end system, manipulate the XML, and + convert it back to normal Sieve format. + + The fact that conversion into and out of XML may be done as a + separate operation on a different system argues strongly for defining + a common XML representation for Sieve. This way, different front-end + user interfaces can be used with different back-end mapping and + storage facilities. + + Another issue with the creation and manipulation of Sieve scripts by + user interfaces is that the language is strictly focused on + describing email filtering operations. The language contains no + mechanisms for indicating how a given script should be presented in a + user interface. Such information can be represented in XML very + easily, so it makes sense to define a framework to do this as part of + the XML format. A structured comment convention is then used to + retain this information when the script is converted to normal Sieve + format. + + It should be noted, however, that the ability for different front + ends to use the same mapping and storage facilities does not mean + that the additional XML information produced by different front ends + will interoperate. + + Various Sieve extensions have already been defined, e.g., [RFC5183], + [RFC5229], [RFC5230], [RFC5231], [RFC5232], [RFC5233], [RFC5235], + [RFC5293], and more are planned. The set of extensions available + varies from one implementation to the next and may even change as a + result of configuration choices. It is therefore essential that the + XML representation of Sieve be able to accommodate Sieve extensions + without requiring schema changes. It is also desirable that Sieve + extensions not require changes to the code that converts to and from + the XML representation. + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 3] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + This specification defines an XML representation for Sieve scripts + and explains how the conversion process to and from XML works. The + XML representation is capable of accommodating any future Sieve + extension as long as the underlying Sieve grammar remains unchanged. + Furthermore, code that converts from XML to the normal Sieve format + requires no changes to accommodate extensions, while code used to + convert from normal Sieve format to XML only requires changes when + new control commands are added -- a rare event. An XML Schema, Relax + NG Schema, and a sample stylesheet to convert from XML format are + also provided in the appendices. + +2. Conventions Used in This Document + + The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", + "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this + document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119]. + + The term "processor" is used throughout this document to refer to + agents that convert Sieve to and from the XML representation. The + term "editor" refers to agents that operate on, possibly creating or + modifying, Sieves in XML format. + +3. Grammatical Structure of Sieve + + The Sieve language is designed to be highly extensible without making + any changes to the basic language syntax. Accordingly, the syntax of + Sieve, defined in Section 8 of [RFC5228], is entirely structural in + nature and employs no reserved words of any sort. + + Structurally, a Sieve script consists of a series of commands. Each + command, in turn, consists of an identifier, zero or more arguments, + an optional test or test-list, and finally an optional block + containing another series of commands. Commands are further broken + down into controls and actions, although this distinction cannot be + determined from the grammar. + + Some example Sieve controls are: + + stop; <-- No arguments, test, or command block + require "fileinto"; <-- Control with a single argument + if true {stop;} <-- Control with test and command block + + Some examples of Sieve actions are: + +discard; <-- Action with no arguments, test, or command block +fileinto "folder"; <-- Action with an argument + + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 4] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + At the time of this writing, there are no controls defined that + accept both arguments and a test. Similarly, there are currently no + defined actions that allow either a test or a command block. + Nevertheless, the Sieve grammar allows such constructs to be defined + by some future extension. + + A test consists of an identifier followed by zero or more arguments, + then another test or test-list. Unlike commands, tests cannot be + followed by a command block. + + Here are some examples of Sieve tests. Note that such tests have to + appear as part of a command in order to be syntactically valid: + + true <-- Test with no argument or subordinate test + envelope "to" "me@example.com" <-- Test with several arguments + header :is "from" "you@example.com" <-- Test with tagged argument + + Command or test arguments can be either string lists, whole numbers, + or tags. (Tags are simply identifiers preceded by a colon.) Note + that although the Sieve grammar treats single strings as a degenerate + case of a string list, some tests or actions have arguments that can + only be individual strings, not lists. + + Here is an example showing the use of both a test-list and a string + list: + + if anyof (not exists ["From", "Date"], + header :contains "from" "fool@example.edu") { + discard; + } + + Extensions can add new controls, actions, tests, or arguments to + existing controls or actions. Extensions have also changed how + string content is interpreted, although this is not relevant to this + specification. However, it is especially important to note that so + far, only one of the many defined Sieve extensions -- the + foreverypart extension [RFC5703] -- has added new controls to the + language. It seems safe to assume that, due to their nature, future + addition of controls will be relatively rare. + + Finally, comments are allowed between lexical elements in a Sieve + script. One important use case for comments is encoding meta-data + about the script, a facility that is lacking in the Sieve language. + Therefore, comments need to be preserved in the XML representation. + + + + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 5] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + +4. XML Representation of Sieve + + Sieve controls and actions are represented in XML as "control" or + "action" elements, respectively. The command's identifier appears as + a name attribute on the element itself. This is the only attribute + allowed on controls and actions -- arguments, tests, test-lists, and + nested command blocks are all represented as nested elements. While + naming the element after the control or action itself may seem like a + better choice, doing so would result in extensions requiring frequent + corresponding schema changes. + + The example Sieve controls shown in the previous section would be + represented as these XML fragments: + + <control name="stop"/> + + <control name="require"><str>fileinto</str></control> + + <control name="if"> + <test name="true"/><control name="stop"/> + </control> + + The example Sieve actions shown above would appear in XML as: + + <action name="discard"/> + <action name="fileinto"><str>folder</str></action> + + The separation of controls from actions in the XML representation + means that conversion from normal Sieve format to XML has to be able + to distinguish between controls and actions. This is easily done by + maintaining a list of all known controls since experience indicates + new controls are rarely added. At the time of this writing, the list + of defined controls consists of: + + 1. if [RFC5228], + + 2. stop [RFC5228], + + 3. require [RFC5228], + + 4. foreverypart [RFC5703], and + + 5. break [RFC5703]. + + It should be noted that with this approach unknown controls will + simply be treated as actions and can be passed back and forth between + the two representations. The treatment of a control as an action is + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 6] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + unlikely to cause other issues since knowledge of a control's + language semantics is almost always required to take advantage of it. + + Tests are represented in the same basic way as controls and actions, + that is, as a "test" element with a name attribute giving the test + identifier. For example, the following XML fragments show various + types of tests: + + <test name="true"/> + + <test name="envelope"/> + <str>to</str><str>me@example.com</str> + </test> + + <test name="header"/> + <tag>is</tag><str>from</str><str>you@example.com</str> + </test> + + String, number, and tag arguments are represented as "str", "num", + and "tag" elements, respectively. The actual string, number, or tag + identifier appears as text inside the element. None of these + elements have any defined attributes. Several examples of arguments + have already appeared in the preceding control, action, and test + examples. Any whitespace in the str body content MUST be preserved + by the processor. Also, note that since strings and tags are + represented as element text, any quotes or other syntactic elements + required in the regular Sieve representation are dropped rather than + being carried over into the XML. + + String list arguments are represented as a "list" element, which in + turn contains one or more str elements. Note that this allows the + distinction between a single string and a string list containing a + single string to be preserved. This is not essential since a list + containing a single string could simply be mapped to a string, but it + seems prudent to maintain the distinction when mapping to and from + XML. + + Nested command blocks appear as a series of control or action + elements inside of an outer control or action element. No block + element is needed since an inner command block can only appear once + and only after any arguments, tests, or test-lists. For example: + + + + + + + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 7] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + <control name="if"> + <test name="anyof"> + <test name="not"> + <test name="exists"> + <list><str>From</str><str>Date</str></list> + </test> + </test> + <test name="header"> + <tag>contains</tag> + <str>from</str> + <str>fool@example.edu</str> + </test> + </test> + <action name="discard"/> + </control> + + Sieve comments are mapped to a special "comment" element in XML. + Both hash and bracketed comments are mapped to the same construct so + the distinction between the two is lost in XML. XML comments are not + used because some XML tools do not make it convenient to access + comment nodes. + + Comments are allowed between commands and inside "test" elements. + But comments aren't allowed directly inside commands -- due to + limitations of XML Schema, special enclosing "preamble" and + "postamble" elements are needed: + + <control name="if"> + <preamble> + <comment>Check to see if message should be discarded</comment> + </preamble> + <test name="anyof"> + <test name="not"> + <test name="exists"> + <list><str>From</str><str>Date</str></list> + </test> + </test> + <test name="header"> + <tag>contains</tag> + <str>from</str> + <str>fool@example.edu</str> + </test> + </test> + <action name="discard"/> + <postamble> + <comment>End of discard check</comment> + </postamble> + </control> + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 8] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + +4.1. XML Display Directives + + Sometimes graphical user interfaces are a convenient way to provide + Sieve management functions to users. These interfaces typically + summarize/annotate/group/display Sieve script(s) in an intuitive way + for end users. + + To do this effectively, the graphical user interface may require + additional information about the Sieve script itself. That + information or "meta-data" might include, but is not limited to, a + Sieve name (identifying the current Sieve), whether the Sieve is + enabled or disabled, and the order in which the parts of the Sieve + are presented to the user. The graphical user interface may also + choose to provide mechanisms to allow the user to modify the script. + + It is often useful for a graphical user interface to group related + Sieve script elements and provide an interface that displays these + groups separately so they can be managed as a single object. Some + examples include Sieve statements that together provide vacation + responders, blacklists/whitelists, and other types of filtering + controls. + + Some advanced graphical user interfaces may even provide a natural + language representation of a Sieve script and/or an advanced + interface to present Sieve statements directly to the user. + + A graphical user interface may also choose to support only a subset + of action commands in the Sieve language (and its extensions), and so + a mechanism to indicate the extent of support and characterize the + relationships between those supported action commands and the test + (with its arguments) is immensely useful and probably required for + clients that may not have complete knowledge of Sieve grammar and + semantics. + + The Sieve language contains no mechanisms for indicating how a given + script should be presented in a user interface. The language also + does not contain any specific mechanisms to represent other sorts of + meta-data about the script. Providing support for such meta-data as + part of a Sieve script is currently totally implementation specific + and is usually done by imposing some type of structure on comments. + + However, such information can be represented in XML very easily, so + it makes sense to define a framework to do this as part of the XML + format. Implementations MAY choose to use structured comments to + retain this information when the script is converted to normal Sieve + format. + + + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 9] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + The sample schemata for the XML representation of Sieve allows XML in + foreign namespaces to be inserted in the same places "comment" + elements can appear in Sieve scripts. This is the preferred means of + including additional information. Alternately, the schema defines + two display directives -- displayblock and displaydata -- as + containers for meta-data needed by graphical user interfaces. + + Editors MAY use displayblock, displaydata, and foreign namespaces to + associate meta-data. Some editors find it inconvenient to preserve + this additional data during an editing session. Editors MAY preserve + this data during an editing session for compatibility with other + editors. + + The displayblock element can be used to enclose any number of Sieve + statements at any level. It is semantically meaningless to the Sieve + script itself. It allows an arbitrary set of attributes. + Implementations MAY use this to provide many simple, display-related + meta-data for the Sieve such as Sieve identifier, group identifier, + order of processing, etc. + + The displaydata element supports any number of arbitrary child + elements. Implementations MAY use this to represent complex data + about that Sieve such as a natural language representation of Sieve + or a way to provide the Sieve script directly. + +4.2. Structured Comments + + Since the XML representation is not intended as a storage format, + there needs to be a way to preserve the additional information that + can be included in the XML representation in the normal Sieve syntax. + This is done through the use of three structured comment conventions: + + 1. XML content in other namespaces is placed in Sieve bracketed + comments beginning with the string "/* [/" and ending with the + string "/] */". + + 2. The content of displaydata elements is placed in Sieve bracketed + comments beginning with the string "/* [|" and ending with the + string "|] */". + + 3. The beginning of a displayblock element is mapped to a bracketed + Sieve comment beginning with the string "/* [*", which then lists + any displayblock attribute names and values in XML format. The + end of a displayblock element is mapped to a comment of the form + "*] */". + + Processors MUST preserve the additional information allowed in the + XML format and SHOULD use the structured comment format shown above. + + + +Freed & Vedam Standards Track [Page 10] + +RFC 5784 An XML Representation for Sieve March 2010 + + + Note: If "*/" is found in the XML content, when mapped into a + comment, it would prematurely terminate that comment. Escaping this + sequence would often be inconvenient for processors. Editors SHALL + NOT include "*/" within displayblock, displaydata, or foreign markup. + Processors MAY regard documents containing "*/" in foreign markup, + displayblock, or displaydata as invalid. + +4.3. Validation + + A processor MAY validate documents against a schema, and it MAY + reject any that do not conform. For any document that a processor + does not reject as invalid, any markup that the processor cannot + understand by reference to this specification MAY be discarded. + + Note that example Relax NG and XML Schema are given in the appendices + below. + +5. Security Considerations + + Any syntactically valid Sieve script can be represented in XML. + Accordingly, all security considerations applicable to Sieve and any + extensions used also apply to the XML representation. + + The use of XML carries its own security risks. Section 7 of RFC 3470 + [RFC3470] discusses these risks. + + It is axiomatic that a Sieve editor must be trusted to do what the + user specifies. If XML formats are used, this trust necessarily must + extend to the components involved in converting to and from XML + format. + + Arbitrary data can be included using other namespaces or placed in + the extensible displayblock and displaydata constructs defined in + this specification, possibly including entire scripts and other + executable content in languages other than Sieve. Such material will + necessarily have its own security considerations, which are beyond + the scope of this document. + +6.
