==Converting
If you use Mozilla (eg Thunderbird) and have existing rules created, then they can be converted in to Sieve from this page: [http://wiki.aaisp.org.uk/mozilla2sieve.html mozilla2sieve.html].
Here are some step by step instruction on moving the filters over:
#Open your msgFilterRules.dat file in a text editor (notepad, gedit etc)
##This will be found in your 'Local directory', which can be found in Account Settings - Server Setting - look for the 'Local directory' box at the bottom.
#Copy and paste the text in to the [http://wiki.aaisp.org.uk/mozilla2sieve.html converter]
#Install the ThunderBird ManageSieve plugin:
##Tools - Addons - Search for Sieve, and Install 'Sieve 0.22'
#Go to Tools - Sieve Message Filters
##Click 'New...'
##give it a name, eg My Filters
##Paste in the results from the converter page
##Check that there are not any errors reported, then click Save.
