My above text is completely wrong. When creating mail root directory,
0700 mode is used. I think Sieve should do the same thing when creating
Sieve root directory.

I should probably at some point add a function that can be used to
create these mail/sieve root dirs, but initially they would just create
with 0700 mode too. Until someone complains and wants some other
permissions to be used, and then I'd have to figure out some way to do
that.
