Cyrus' 2.2. Sieve implementation can only have one active Sieve script.

Best is to use sieveshell to set the sieve scripts.

Sievescript have to be bytecode compiled, I guess that would need to be done 
if you place them manually. Also there must be a symbolic link
to the active script. Set one of the prepared sieve scripts with the web admin
interface and examine the server to see how a correct structure would be.
