You can try these commands on a command prompt... You can also test them by pasting them in a file and then make that file executable (chmod +x file ) . You can execute a script by using ./, followed by the name of the file./file. A .sh extension is not required..
Thanks a lot , actually I have a habbit of storing the scripts in an independent file with .sh extension and then calling them like sh aa.sh (assuming the script name is aa.sh ) so please advise can I do like that also and when I invoke i will pass the source folder name and destination filder name, like suppose the script name is aa.sh so the command will to execute the script will be like..
sh aa.sh temp1 temp2

NAME
installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
installsieve DESCRIPTION
installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server. OPTIONS
-v <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard output. -l List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active a arrow is printed indicating that it is the active script. -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services. -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server it is overwritten. Upon sucessfully putting the script on the server the script is set active. If <file> has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since sieve names may not contain a '.'. -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the '-l' option.. -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>. -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism is chosen. -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a file with that name already exists it is overwritten. -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user. CMU
