If you're a Horde fan, another way besides pysieved is to use the 
Dovecot sieve plugin and Horde's Ingo application.  It takes a bit of 
work, but you can set it up so that when users create/modify filters 
within Horde, it writes out the appropriate Sieve file that the Dovecot 
plugin can parse.  It makes for an easy GUI for filter rules that pretty 
much any user can figure out.

Gentoo makes this easier since the sieve use flag causes the patch to be 
downloaded and compiled into Dovecot for you, so you only have to worry 
about the configuration, not getting and applying the patch.
