See https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home "Home vs. mail directory", 
first you should make sure that mail dir != home dir, hence, "sieve" is no 
longer below Maildir.

2nd: make sure that you have enabled "sieve" as shown on 
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Configuration . As you see, 
Sieve works only, if you use Dovecot's LMTP or LDA.

3rd: verify ManageSieve 
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/ManageSieve/Configuration .

If you want to have an opinion about your configuration, you ought to post 
it.
