[Dovecot] Debugging sieve-options

[Jens Meyer]

Hi Chris,

thank you very much for your helpful answer!

deliver was configured fine already.

But I was not aware that I need another tool/configuration for managing 
sieve-scripts. I am using pysieved now (with Sieve for Thunderbird) and 
everything is working fine. Great...

Kind regards,

       Jens
