Those packates are available in Debian version 9, codenamed Stretch. Check like this: Code: root@ns3:~# lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 9.3 (stretch) Release: 9.3 Codename: stretch root@ns3:~# LANG=C apt-cache policy dovecot-sieve dovecot-sieve: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:2.2.27-3+deb9u1 Version table: 1:2.2.27-3+deb9u1 500 500 http://debian.mirrors.ovh.net/debian stretch/main amd64 Packages root@ns3:~# If those packages are not shown as candidates, try "apt-get update". If still no luck check what is in /etc/apt/sources.list and in directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.
The install command is fine and the package exists in Debian 9, just verified that on my Debian 9 server. Check your /etc/apt/sources.list and compare it with the one from the tutorial
