No, you tripped a bug.

The following script should have yielded the desired result:

--
require "vacation";

vacation
   :from "Stephan Bosch <stephan at rename-it.nl>"
   "I am off to Hawaii";
--

However, the header constructed by Dovecot looks as follows:

From: <Stephan Bosch <stephan at rename-it.nl>>

Most mail servers will reject this, drop it, or dump it in a frozen 
queue somewhere.

This bug is/was present in both the CMU Sieve and new Sieve plug-in. In 
case you are using the CMU Sieve plug-in, a patch against the v1.1 
version is attached. The change is very trivial and should be easy to 
backport to the v1.0 version. For the new Sieve plug-in, the bug is 
fixed in the Mercurial repository and it will therefore be fixed in the 
upcoming release.

Timo, could you apply this fix to the dovecot-sieve-1.0/1.1 repositories?

Regards,
