I remember it was fixed in 1.0.3 but I've got dovecot-sieve-1.1.5_1 and
dovecot-1.1.3 (FreeBSD) right now and it seems to me I've encountered
the similar problem.

My .dovecot.sieve is like the following:

# Reject all mail to webmaster at example.net
if header
   :matches
     ["To", "Cc", "Bcc", "Reply-To", "In-Reply-To"]
     ["webmaster at example.net"] {
   discard;
   stop;
}

I don't need e-mail spammers send to my webmaster at example.net and the
above rules really discard the messages that I send to webmaster at example.net
myself, see:

deliver(eugene): Sep 19 02:17:05 Info: cmusieve: Using sieve path: /home/eugene/.dovecot.sieve
deliver(eugene): Sep 19 02:17:05 Info: cmusieve: Executing script /home/eugene/.dovecot.sievec
deliver(eugene): Sep 19 02:17:05 Info: msgid=<367302207.20080919004558 at example.net>: discarded

But spammers bypass the sieve with ease. I can see messages having the
line "To: webmaster at example.net" in the header and still getting into my
inbox though:

deliver(eugene): Sep 19 01:45:19 Info: cmusieve: Using sieve path: /home/eugene/.dovecot.sieve
deliver(eugene): Sep 19 01:45:19 Info: cmusieve: Executing script /home/eugene/.dovecot.sievec
deliver(eugene): Sep 19 01:45:19 Info: msgid=<01c919ad$ec09ed80$6c589fbe@|andreas>: saved mail to INBOX

Am I doing something wrong?
