Hello,
I've solved it. The compiled sieve script had the same mtime as the
uncompiled script. Dovecot used "<" to see if compilation is needed. It
has to be "<=".
If you wonder why the mtime is the same, I write and compile the sieve
script right after each other automated. Apparently mtime doesn't have a
good resolution in time...
Patch to dovecot-sieve-1.1.4 is attached, can it be included?
Thanks,
Alexander
