[Dovecot] redirect actions exceeds policy limit

[David Webmailbeta Warden]

In conf.d/90-sieve.conf we have: 

# The maximum number of redirect
actions that can be performed during 
# a single script execution.

#sieve_max_redirects = 4 
sieve_max_redirects = 25 

I think that's the
setting you're looking for.

policy limit is set.

I'm wondering where else I can look to find where this limit is coming
from and adjust it upwards.
