You will need to use prebuilt-packages of Dovecot and Pigeonhole or 
recompile Pigeonhole against your current Dovecot version so that there 
is no version mismatch between them.

The pigeonhole module adds SIEVE functionality to Dovecot,
the Dovecot wiki describes how to download and install it:

Dovecot configuration for SIEVE plugin is documented at:
