In fact, it's not a useable setup for most of Horde interface users. And 
they are many.

As soon as one of them will modify its sieve script (let's say one goes 
on vacations...), this will erase manual include entry...  and the 
general filter will be gone.

At least, if autocreateinboxfolders, autosubscribeinboxfolders, 
autocreate_sieve_script, and generate_compile_sieve_script were working, 
then we would have something really useful. I was quite used to that 
when I was using Cyrus-Imap alone. I was creating the user entry and, at 
first login, folders and scripts were created automatically. And, in 
these many years I worked with this setup, I never had one user which 
deleted his auto-created script. It's really sad that this does not work 
with Kolab, as this is overloading user creation time, as everything 
must be done manually.
