Home directory is supposed to be a private directory for user. Now
you're using a shared directory as home, and that's going to break some
things. For example .dovecot.lda-dupes file is created to home directory
by deliver, and that's going to fail with your current setup.

So I think you should try to make it so that userdb returns
home=/mailboxes/storage_01/domain.org/u/us/use/user

then in dovecot.conf set everything like:

mail_location = dbox:~/dbox

plugin {
  quota = dict:user::file:%h/dovecot-quota
}

and sieve would automatically be using the home directory.
