I recently updated dovecot and my sieve filters stopped working. Checking the logs I see:
Dec 9 00:09:59 mailhost dovecot: lda(gessel at domain.com): Error: sieve: binary save: failed to create temporary file: open(/usr/local/etc/dovecot/sieve/10-move-spam.svbin.mailhost.domain.com.114.) failed: Permission denied (euid=5000(vmail) egid=5000(vmail) missing +w perm: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sieve, we're not in group 6(mail), dir owned by 143:6 mode=0775)
Dec 9 00:09:59 mailhost dovecot: lda(gessel at domain.com): Error: sieve: The LDA Sieve plugin does not have permission to save global Sieve script binaries; global Sieve scripts like `/usr/local/etc/dovecot/sieve/10-move-spam.sieve' need to be pre-compiled using the sievec tool
However this fairly clear advice on the failure seems to be contradicted by:
# id vmail
uid=5000(vmail) gid=5000(vmail) groups=5000(vmail),6(mail)
