# Move detected spam to Junk folder

To move detected spam to user's Junk folder, you need to enable global sieve script in Dovecot.

You can find sample sieve rule file `/var/vmail/sieve/dovecot.sieve.sample` if you chose `/var/vmail` to store mailboxes during iRedMail installation. If you have a custom mailbox storage directory, the sample sieve rule file should be `sieve/dovecot.sieve.sample` under that directory. If you cannot find it, you can still download one from iRedMail project: here.

This file must be owned by user `vmail` and group `vmail`, permission `0500`.

Now open Dovecot config file `/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf` (on Linux/OpenBSD) or `/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf` (FreeBSD), make sure you have setting like below:

    # Part of file: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

    plugin {
        ...
        sieve_before = /var/vmail/sieve/dovecot.sieve
        ...
    }

Restart Dovecot service to enable it.

Note: we don't use `sieve_default =` for global sieve script, because it will be ignored if users have their own personal sieve rule files.
