Dovecot says the message was stored into a Spam mailbox but it's not there

[Matt Bryant]

In theory delivery (for Maildir) should be to 'new' directory

ie: /var/vmail/domain/user/Maildir/.Spam/new/

only when a message is read/downloaded should it migrate to

/var/vmail/domain/user/Maildir/.Spam/cur/

upping the mail_debug setting to true should give you more information
around what sieve is doing and what path mail stored in.
