1.  Introduction

   The JSON Meta Application Protocol (JMAP) [RFC 8620] 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 it aims to provide a consistent interface
   to different data types.

   This specification defines a data model for managing Sieve scripts
   [RFC 5228] on a server using JMAP.  The data model is designed to
   allow a server to provide consistent access to the same scripts via
   ManageSieve [RFC 5804] as well as JMAP.

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 [RFC 2119] [RFC 8174] 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 [RFC 8620].  This
   document also uses data types and terminology established in
   Sections 1.2 through 1.6 of [RFC 8620].

   The term "SieveScript" (with this specific capitalization) is used to
   refer to the data type defined in Section 2 and instances of this
   data type used throughout this document.  Servers MUST support all
   properties specified for the data type defined in this document.

   For brevity, JMAP API examples (see Section 3 of [RFC 8620]) only show
   the "methodCalls" property of the "Request" object and the
   "methodResponses" property of the "Response" object.  All other
   examples are shown using the HTTP/1.1 protocol [RFC 9112].

1.2.  Addition to the Capabilities Object

   The "capabilities" object is returned as part of the JMAP Session
   object; see [RFC 8620], Section 2.  This document defines one
   additional capability URI.

1.2.1.  urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve

   The urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve URI represents support for the
   SieveScript data type and associated API methods.  The value of this
   property in the JMAP Session "capabilities" property is an object
   that MUST contain the following information on server capabilities:

   *implementation*:  String

      The name and version of the Sieve implementation.

   The value of this property in an account's "accountCapabilities"
   property is an object that MUST contain the following information on
   per-account server capabilities:

   *maxSizeScriptName*:  UnsignedInt

      The maximum length, in octets, allowed for the name of a
      SieveScript.  For compatibility with ManageSieve, this MUST be at
      least 512 (up to 128 Unicode characters).

   *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.

   *maxNumberScripts*:  UnsignedInt|null

      The maximum number of Sieve scripts the server is willing to store
      for the user, or null for no limit.

   *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.

   *sieveExtensions*:  String[]

      A list of case-sensitive Sieve capability strings (as listed in
      the Sieve "require" action; see [RFC 5228], Section 3.2) indicating
      the extensions supported by the Sieve engine.

   *notificationMethods*:  String[]|null

      A list of URI scheme parts [RFC 3986] for notification methods
      supported by the Sieve "enotify" extension [RFC 5435], or null if
      the extension is not supported by the Sieve engine.

   *externalLists*:  String[]|null

      A list of URI scheme parts [RFC 3986] for externally stored list
      types supported by the Sieve "extlists" extension [RFC 6134], or
      null if the extension is not supported by the Sieve engine.

1.2.2.  Example

   This example JMAP Session object shows a user that has access to
   their own Sieve scripts with support for a few Sieve extensions:

   {
     "capabilities": {

       ...
     },
     "username": "ken@example.com",

     ...
   }

2.  Sieve Scripts

   A "SieveScript" object represents a single Sieve script [RFC 5228] for
   filtering email messages at the time of final delivery.

2.1.  Sieve Script Properties

   A "SieveScript" object has the following properties:

   *id*:  Id (immutable; server-set)

      The id of the script.

   *name*:  String|null (optional; default is server dependent)

      User-visible name for the SieveScript.  If non-null, this MUST be
      a Net-Unicode string [RFC 5198] 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 any of the following Unicode characters: U+0000-U+001F,
      U+007F-U+009F, U+2028, or U+2029.

      Servers MAY reject names that violate server policy (e.g., names
      containing a slash (/)).

      The name MUST be unique among all SieveScripts within an account.

   *blobId*:  Id

      The id of the blob containing the raw octets of the script.

   *isActive*:  Boolean (server-set; default: false)

      Indicator that the SieveScript is actively filtering incoming
      messages.

      A user may have at most one active script.  The SieveScript/set
      method (Section 2.4) is used for changing the active script or
      disabling Sieve processing.

2.2.  Sieve Script Content

   A script MUST be UTF-8 content [RFC 3629] of at least 1 character in
   length, subject to the syntax of Sieve [RFC 5228].  A script MUST NOT
   contain any "require" statement(s) mentioning Sieve capability
   strings not present in the "capability" object (Section 1.2.1).  Note
   that if the Sieve "ihave" capability string [RFC 5463] is present in
   the "capability" object, the script MAY mention unrecognized/
   unsupported extensions in the "ihave" test.

   Script content is treated as a binary blob and uploaded/downloaded
   via the mechanisms provided in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of [RFC 8620],
   respectively, and/or via the JMAP Blob management methods provided in
   Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of [RFC 9404], respectively.

   Downloading script content via the JMAP downloadUrl or the Blob/get
   method provides functionality equivalent to that of the GETSCRIPT
   command defined in [RFC 5804].

2.3.  SieveScript/get

   This is a standard "/get" method as described in [RFC 8620],
   Section 5.1.  The "ids" argument may be null to fetch all scripts at
   once.

   This method provides functionality equivalent to that of the
   LISTSCRIPTS command defined in [RFC 5804].

2.3.1.  Examples

   List all scripts:

   [
     ["SieveScript/get", {
       "accountId": "ken"
     }, "0"]
   ]

   [
     [
       "SieveScript/get",
       {
         "state": "1634915373.240633104-120",
         "list": [
           {
             "id": "2d647053-dded-418d-917a-63eda3ac8f7b",
             "name": "test1",
             "isActive": true,
             "blobId": "S7"
           }
         ],
         "notFound": [],
         "accountId": "ken"
       },
       "0"
     ]
   ]

   Download the script content via the JMAP downloadUrl as advertised in
   the example in Section 1.2.2:

   GET /jmap/download/ken/S7/test1.siv?accept=application/sieve HTTP/1.1
   Host: jmap.example.com
   Authorization: Basic a2VuOnBhc3N3b3Jk

   HTTP/1.1 200 OK
   Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2021 15:27:38 GMT
   Content-Type: application/sieve; charset=utf-8
   Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="test1.siv"
   Content-Length: 49

   require ["fileinto"];
   fileinto "INBOX.target";

   Fetch script properties and content in a single JMAP API request
   using the JMAP Blob management extension [RFC 9404]:

   [
     ["SieveScript/get", {
       "accountId": "ken",
       "ids": [ "2d647053-dded-418d-917a-63eda3ac8f7b" ]
     }, "0"],
     ["Blob/get", {
       "accountId": "ken",
       "#ids": {
         "resultOf": "0",
         "name": "SieveScript/get",
         "path": "/list/*/blobId"
       }
     }, "1"]
   ]

   [
     [
       "SieveScript/get",
       {
         "state": "1634915373.240633104-120",
         "list": [
           {
             "id": "2d647053-dded-418d-917a-63eda3ac8f7b",
             "name": "test1",
             "isActive": true,
             "blobId": "S7"
           }
         ],
         "notFound": [],
         "accountId": "ken"
       },
       "0"
     ],
     [
       "Blob/get",
       {
         "list": [
           {
             "id": "S7",
             "data:asText":
        "require [\"fileinto\"];\\r\\nfileinto \"INBOX.target\";\\r\\n",
             "size": 49
           }
         ],
         "notFound": [],
         "accountId": "ken"
       },
       "1"
     ]
   ]

2.4.  SieveScript/set

   This is a standard "/set" method as described in [RFC 8620],
   Section 5.3, but with the following additional optional request
   arguments:

   *onSuccessActivateScript*:  Id

      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 "#".)  The currently active SieveScript (if any) will be
      deactivated before activating the specified SieveScript.

      If omitted, or if the id is either invalid or nonexistent, it MUST
      be ignored, and 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,
      including a value of "true" for the "isActive" property.  The id
      of any deactivated SieveScript MUST be reported in the "updated"
      argument in the response, including a value of "false" for the
      "isActive" property.

   *onSuccessDeactivateScript*:  Boolean

      If "true", the currently active SieveScript (if any) will be
      deactivated if and only if all of the creations, modifications,
      and destructions (if any) succeed.  If "false" or omitted, the
      currently active SieveScript (if any) will remain as such.

      The id of any deactivated SieveScript MUST be reported in the
      "updated" argument in the response, including a value of "false"
      for the "isActive" property.

   If both the "onSuccessActivateScript" and "onSuccessDeactivateScript"
   arguments are present in the request, then
   "onSuccessDeactivateScript" MUST be processed first.  If neither
   argument is present in the request, the currently active SieveScript
   (if any) will remain as such.

   This method provides functionality equivalent to that of the
   PUTSCRIPT, DELETESCRIPT, RENAMESCRIPT, and SETACTIVE commands defined
   in [RFC 5804].

   Script content must first be uploaded as per Section 2.2 prior to
   referencing it in a SieveScript/set call.

   If the SieveScript cannot 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 cannot be created or updated because its size
   exceeds the "maxSizeScript" limit, the server MUST reject the request
   with a "tooLarge" SetError.

   If the SieveScript cannot be created because it would exceed the
   "maxNumberScripts" limit or would exceed a server-imposed storage
   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":

   *invalidSieve*:  The SieveScript content violates the Sieve grammar
      [RFC 5228], 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":

   *sieveIsActive*:  The SieveScript is active.

2.4.1.  Examples

   Upload a script requiring the Imap4Flags Extension [RFC 5232] using
   the JMAP uploadUrl as advertised in the example in Section 1.2.2:

   POST /jmap/upload/ken/ HTTP/1.1
   Host: jmap.example.com
   Authorization: Basic a2VuOnBhc3N3b3Jk
   Content-Type: application/sieve
   Content-Length: 98

   require "imapflags";

   if address :is ["To", "Cc"] "jmap@ietf.org" {
     setflag "\\Flagged";
   }


   HTTP/1.1 201 Created
   Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2020 17:14:31 GMT

     "size": 98
   }

   Create and activate a script using the uploaded blob.  Note that the
   response shows that an existing active script has been deactivated in
   lieu of the newly created script being activated.

2.5.  SieveScript/query

   This is a standard "/query" method as described in [RFC 8620],
   Section 5.5.  A "FilterCondition" object has the following
   properties, either of which may be omitted:

   *name*:  String

      The SieveScript "name" property contains the given string.

   *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:

   *  *name*

   *  *isActive*

2.6.  SieveScript/validate

   This method is used by the client to verify Sieve script validity
   without storing the script on the server.

   The method takes the following arguments:

   *accountId*:  Id

      The id of the account to use.

   *blobId*:  Id

      The id of the blob containing the raw octets of the script to
      validate, subject to the same requirements in Section 2.2.

   The response has the following arguments:

   *accountId*:  Id

      The id of the account used for this call.

   *error*:  SetError|null

      An "invalidSieve" SetError object if the script content is invalid
      (see Section 2.4), or null if the script content is valid.

   This method provides functionality equivalent to that of the
   CHECKSCRIPT command defined in [RFC 5804].

   Script content must first be uploaded as per Section 2.2 prior to
   referencing it in a SieveScript/validate call.

3.  Quotas

   Servers SHOULD impose quotas on Sieve scripts to prevent malicious
   users from exceeding available storage.  Administration of such
   quotas is outside of the scope of this specification; however,
   [RFC 9425] defines a data model for users to obtain quota details over
   JMAP.

   The mechanism for handling SieveScript requests that would place a
   user over a quota setting is discussed in Section 2.4.

4.  Compatibility with JMAP Vacation Response

   Section 8 of [RFC 8621] defines a "VacationResponse" object to
   represent an autoresponder to incoming email messages.  Servers that
   implement the VacationResponse as a Sieve script that resides among
   other user scripts are subject to the following requirements:

   *  MUST allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be fetched by the
      SieveScript/get method (Section 2.3).

   *  MUST allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be activated or
      deactivated via the "onSuccessActivateScript" argument to the
      SieveScript/set method (Section 2.4).

   *  MUST NOT allow the VacationResponse Sieve script to be destroyed
      or have its content updated by the SieveScript/set method
      (Section 2.4).  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.

5.  Security Considerations

   All security considerations discussed in JMAP [RFC 8620] and Sieve
   [RFC 5228] apply to this specification.

   Additionally, implementations MUST treat Sieve script content as
   untrusted data.  As such, script parsers MUST fail gracefully in the
   face of syntactically invalid or malicious content and MUST be
   prepared to deal with resource exhaustion (e.g., allocation of
   enormous strings, lists, or command blocks).

6.  IANA Considerations

6.1.  JMAP Capability Registration for "sieve"

   IANA has registered "sieve" in the "JMAP Capabilities" registry as
   follows:

   Capability Name:  urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve

   Reference:  RFC 9661

   Intended Use:  common

   Change Controller:  IETF

   Security and Privacy Considerations:  RFC 9661, Section 5

6.2.  JMAP Data Type Registration for "SieveScript"

   IANA has registered "SieveScript" in the "JMAP Data Types" registry
   as follows:

   Type Name:  SieveScript

   Can Reference Blobs:  Yes

   Can Use for State Change:  Yes

   Capability:  urn:ietf:params:jmap:sieve

   Reference:  RFC 9661

6.3.  JMAP Error Codes Registry

   IANA has registered the following two new error codes in the "JMAP
   Error Codes" registry, as defined in [RFC 8620].

6.3.1.  invalidSieve

   JMAP Error Code:  invalidSieve

   Intended Use:  common

   Change Controller:  IETF

   Reference:  RFC 9661, Section 2.4

   Description:  The SieveScript violates the Sieve grammar [RFC 5228],
      and/or one or more extensions mentioned in the script's "require"
      statement(s) are not supported by the Sieve interpreter.

6.3.2.  sieveIsActive

   JMAP Error Code:  sieveIsActive

   Intended Use:  common

   Change Controller:  IETF

   Reference:  RFC 9661, Section 2.4

   Description:  The client tried to destroy the active SieveScript.
