What directory is sieve configures to use?  Mine is:
   sieve            = ~/Maildir/dovecot.sieve

Which is:
drwxr-xr-x. 13 root root system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0         4096 Jul 17  2015 /home
drwx------. 13 bill bill unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 4096 Aug 30  2015 /home/bill
drwx------. 84 bill bill system_u:object_r:mail_home_rw_t:s0      8192 Jul 22 17:02 /home/bill/Maildir
drwxr-x---.  3 bill bill system_u:object_r:mail_home_rw_t:s0      4096 May 27 08:09 /home/bill/Maildir/sieve
