Rename it to .dovecot.sieve

The new Sieve implementation create files named: .dovecot.svbin

There should be something logged, similar to the following lines:
Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda
Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda/lib90_sieve_plugin.so
auth input: home=/path/to/users/home
auth input: uid=1234
auth input: gid=5678
auth input: mail=maildir:~/.maildir
maildir: data=~/.maildir
maildir++: root=/path/to/users/home/.maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/path/to/users/home/.maildir
sieve: local script path /path/to/users/home/.dovecot.sieve doesn't exist (using global script path in stead)
sieve: user has no valid personal script
sieve: no scripts to execute: reverting to default delivery.

Looks also fine.

if you could load the sieve plugin, write a minimal sieve script with
this lines:
	require "fileinto";
	fileinto "NonExistentBox";

Then deliver should log something like:
failed to store into mailbox 'NonExistentBox': Mailbox doesn't exist: NonExistentBox
