Are you perhaps creating the sieve files directly rather than uploading
them via timsieved?

Are you perhaps creating a file called "default" as a file?

I only ask because we had the same problem, and it turns out that the
correct directory layout for sieve files is actually something like our
final layout of:

[root at imap3 brong]$ ls -la
total 13
drwx------    2 cyrus mail  144 Sep 26 10:38 .
drwx------  189 cyrus mail 5408 Mar 25 07:38 ..
lrwxrwxrwx    1 cyrus mail   11 Nov  7 23:40 defaultbc -> websieve.bc
-rw-------    1 cyrus mail 3776 Sep 26 10:33 websieve.bc
-rw-------    1 cyrus mail 3020 Sep 26 10:33 websieve.script

Where websieve.script is uploaded via timsieved from our web servers.

This synchronises correctly, and I'm pretty sure we aren't applying any
patches related to sieve support (but feel free to check out our collection
