First of all, could you provide us with the output of 'dovecot -n' and, since you are talking ManageSieve manually to the server already, a listing of a protocol session (i.e. commands and responses)? And, if you enable mail_debug for the managesieve protocol, you will get messages in your

There are no entries in any of the logs related to lda or managesieve. I did run managesieve again (after creating the relevant logfiles), and got this: OK Logged in. LISTSCRIPTS imap(root): Warning: Active sieve script symlink /home/cam/.dovecot.sieve is no symlink. OK Listscripts completed.

[Dovecot] feature request: deny IP address via database

I'm reentering this conversation a little late - but how are you delivering mail? Via the Dovecot LDA (in which case Sieve should be used)? Or directly via e.g. procmail (in which case Sieve never gets a chance to be run)? I have Exim, which does its usual thing, and the LDA is Dovecot
