Enable mail_debug=yes. This way, Dovecot should log where it is looking
for the Sieve files.

This is not a good idea. Don't put the active script link (sieve=)
inside the script storage (sieve_dir=). There is special magic to
prevent the Active script from showing up in ManageSieve as an
additional script, but it is best to avoid this situation altogether.
