yeah, we still can't tell if it is a postfix or dovecot issue ... 

using the malformed sieve script just do a simple deliver

$ cat /etc/hosts | ./deliver -d me at mydomain.com -f blah at blah.com

(obviously) dovecot should be running and me at mydomain.com should be the person 
with the screwed up sieve script. if you still don't have 
a .dovecot.sieve.err file then it is on the dovecot side.
