Well indeed that was helpful in the log file I see:

Apr 22 22:51:48 ckottari-dhcp1 dovecot: lda(ckottari): Debug: sieve:
script file /var/vmail/ckottari/sieve/My RRs.sieve.sieve not found
Apr 22 22:51:48 ckottari-dhcp1 dovecot: lda(ckottari): Debug: sieve:
script file /var/vmail/ckottari/sieve/RCPL.sieve.sieve not found

Seems in this version it assumes the files will end in .sieve and I
guess that previously they had to have the whole filename in the include
statement. So, I removed the .sieve in the include statements:

include :personal "My RRs.sieve";
include :personal "RCPL.sieve";

to
include :personal "My RRs";
include :personal "RCPL";

Seems to do it since I get a successful compile now:

Apr 22 23:01:12 ckottari-dhcp1 dovecot: lda(ckottari): Debug: sieve:
binary open: binary /var/vmail/ckottari/sieve/Active.svbin stored with
different binary version 0.3 (!= 1.0; automatically fixed when re-compiled)

OK, I moved Active.sieve out of the sieve_dir directory and relinked to
the Main.sieve that is in the sieve directory.

The only other issue is the following Warning I get that doesn't seem to
prevent anything, but probably means I don't have something correct:

Apr 22 23:21:30 ckottari-dhcp1 dovecot: auth: Warning: userdb passwd:
Move templates args to override_fields setting
Apr 22 23:21:30 ckottari-dhcp1 dovecot: auth-worker(5089): Warning:
userdb passwd: Move templates args to override_fields setting

Not exactly sure what these warning messages are trying to tell me.

Thanks
