[Dovecot] using sieve plugin

Hi,

I have installed dovecot on ubuntu edgy linux by retrieving the source
debian package, building and installing the package and then building
and installing the sieve plugin.

However, I get no log messages indicating errors and as far as I can
tell, my .dovecot.sieve script is not being used. I have introduced a
syntax error in the script and see no error message.

In dovecot.conf I have:

log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log
invo_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log

protocol lda {
  module_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda
  mail_plugins = cmusieve
  log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log
  info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log
}

I am using exim with dovecot. I've tried using a .forward file (I'm
the one user on the computer). Alternately, I've tried creating the
dovecot_deliver "transport" in exim and changing the localuser router
to use it.

Still, I get no messages from deliver and no error messages from
dovecot or exim. The file dovecot-deliver.log is not created.

Do you have any suggestions that can help me get it working or to see
why it is not working?

Kendall
