[Dovecot] Dovecot not processing through Sieve

[Steven Kiehl]

Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to Dovecot, but I've gotten the majority of things working
except for Sieve.  I'm running Dovecot 1.2.9 coupled with Postfix and
SpamAssassin all with a virtual domains setup.  I am receiving mail and it
is being processed by all the plugins that operate through Postfix.  The
quota configured in Dovecot appears to be working because my mail client
shows the configured quota.  But the Sieve rules are not processing.  I
created a rule as follows to filter spam:

require ["fileinto"];
# rule:[global-spam]
if anyof (header :contains "Subject" "[SPAM]", header :contains
"X-Spam-Flag" "YES")
{
        fileinto "Junk";
}

If I mail myself a message with [SPAM] in the title, it goes into my inbox
regardless.  I've run 'sieve-test' with the same email and it says it will
file it into Junk.  The Junk folder exists.  I even tried adding :create and
the "mailbox" plugin, but that didn't do anything either.  Here is the
relevant majority of my dovecot configuration:

login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login
login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login

plugin:
  convert_mail: maildir:/home/dovecot/mail/domains/%d/%u/Maildir
*  sieve: /etc/dovecot/sieve/domains/%d/%n.sieve*
*  sieve_global_dir: /etc/dovecot/sieve/global/*
  quota: maildir:User
  quota_rule: INBOX:storage=500M
  quota_rule2: INBOX.Trash:storage=100M

The sieve plugin exists in
/usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda/lib90_sieve_plugin.so, so I would assume I'd
have to use *mail_plugin: sieve* as my configuration setting.

Like I said, I am receiving emails to my domains without any problem, but
sieve rules are not being processed.  I can see the rules set up by using
the Roundcube plugin, and I can create and edit rules through Roundcube, but
nothing different happens when I send myself an email.  It all just delivers
to the inbox.

Thanks for your help,

Steve K.
