Keep in mind that the sieve_after script is only executed when the
"keep" action [1] is executed or when the implicit "keep" [2] is still
active, meaning that the user didn't give the mail an explicit destination.

If the user does perform actions like fileinto or redirect without a
`:copy' argument [3] and without performing an explicit "keep" [2]
anywhere, the subsequent sieve_after scripts are not executed [4].

Therefore sieve_after is only useful to provide default behavior for
when the user has no explicit rule for what should happen to the e-mail.

This was probably done using a `fileinto "INBOX.Gmail";' command. This
cancels the implicit keep.

To force executing sieve_after, the user needs to add a `:copy' argument
to that fileinto command or a `keep;' action should be executed.

Administrator policies that always need to  be executed must be placed
in a sieve_before script.
