Because you have tripped a bug that is fixed in the repository, but not 
in the final release:

http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-September/042591.html

Your script executes as follows in the latest release (wrong):
==

$ sieve-test -s before.sieve user.sieve message.eml

## Executing script: /home/stephan/before.sieve
Performed actions:
  * store message in folder: Backup/received-backup
         + add IMAP flags: \seen
  * keep
Implicit keep:
   (none)

## Executing script: /home/stephan/frop.sieve
Performed actions:
  * redirect message to: foo at example.org
Implicit keep:
   (none)

Info: final result: success

==
In the latest repository version it executes as follows (ok):
==

$ sieve-test -s before.sieve user.sieve message.eml

## Executing script: /home/stephan/before.sieve
Performed actions:
  * store message in folder: Backup/received-backup
         + add IMAP flags: \seen
  * keep
Implicit keep:
   (none)

## Executing script: /home/stephan/frop.sieve
Performed actions:
  * redirect message to: foo at example.org
  * store message in folder: INBOX
Implicit keep:
   (none)

Info: final result: success

Due to persisting headaches since last week I haven't had the ability 
nor the motivation to make a new release. Now that I am better I should 
release new Sieve and ManageSieve(s) in the next few days or so.
