[Dovecot] Question about sieve script execution

Hi,

after reading the wiki about sieve_before/sieve_after and sieve_global_path, 
it's still unclear to me if:
sieve_before scripts are executed if no user script exists, but a global 
script is defined.

The reason I ask, is because I'd like to use the same script, so that I don't 
have to maintain two scripts to apply "company policy" or "global features". 
It seems implicit from this sentence, but I've been taught not to assume 
implicitness by various pieces of software ;)

"This is not possible using the sieve_global_path setting, because that is 
only used when the user's private script does not exist."
