5.3 Preprocessor

Preprocessor statements are a GNU extension to the Sieve language. The syntax for a preprocessor statement is similar to that used in C programming language, i.e. a pound character (‘#’) followed by a preprocessor directive and its arguments. Any amount of whitespace can be inserted between the ‘#’ and the directive. Currently implemented directives are include and searchpath.
