Think whole script can be written
Code:
#!/bin/bash
[ $# -ne 3 ] && { echo "Usage: $0 <poolname> <group_a|group_b> <enable|disable>"; exit 1; }
[ $2 != group_a ] && [ $2 != group_b ] && { echo "Unknown action $2"; exit 1; }
[ $3 != enable ] && [ $3 != disable ] && { echo "Unknown action $3"; exit 1; }
while read L
do
    b pool $1 member $L session $3
done < ${2/_/}.txt # to remove the '_' from parameter $2

I added exit 1 when parameters didn't match script requests.
Think parameter 2 could be "groupa" or "groupb" to transform the
Code:
done < ${2/_/}.txt
# in
done < $2.txt

NAME
sieveshell - remotely manipulate sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
sieveshell [--user=user] [--authname=authname] [--realm=realm] [--exec=script] server[:port] sieveshell --help DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress. The following commands are recognized: list list scripts on server. put <filename> upload script to server. get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout delete <name> delete script. activate <name> activate script. deactivate deactivate all scripts. OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials. -a authname, --authname=authname The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user). -r realm, --realm=realm The realm to attempt authentication in. -e script, --exec=script Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
