sieve vacation with postfix

Hi,

I'm trying to use sieve to setup a vacation message.   The important  
parameters for delivery (from what I've gathered from a search of the  
archive) are:

cyrus-imapd version 2.2.12  this is a packaged version from RHEL version 4.
I'm using postfix 2.2.10-1 as the delivery agent.  cyrus is setup to  
run lmtp and postfix is delivering directly to cyrus lmtp.  postfix  
smtp is delivering via lmtp on the same host.

e.g. postfix/main.cf
mailbox_transport=lmtp:unix:/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp

cyrus.conf:

lmtp          cmd="lmtpd" listen="FQDN:lmtp" prefork=1

Everything seems to be working great except sieve vacation.  Sieve is  
filtering mail properly, but when vacation is setup, I don't see any  
attempt from sieve to actually create an e-mail.  Here is the sieve  
vacation instruction:

# Vacation
vacation :days 7 :addresses ["jmcdon at jormungandr.scs.fsu.edu",  
"jeffrey.mcdonald at scs.fsu.edu", "jmcdon at scs.fsu.edu",  
"jmcdon at smtp4.scs.fsu.edu"] :subject "not here" "I'm away.  I will  
return in 7 days. ";


I don't see any errors in the log files and I see no message ever  
recieved by the  postfix daemon from the sieve filter.   The  
/usr/lib/sendmail executable is setup to sendmail.postfix and this  
executable sends mail properly if executed outside of sieve.

I've searched some of the archive but I've been able to find any  
solution to this problem.  If it matters, the script is created by  
horde/ingo 1.8.10.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Jeff McDonald
