Anyone running cyrus-imapd will have sieve installed. Here is a really
basic example that does work, I used it while testing.

<code>
require "fileinto";

if header :contains "Subject" "testing123" {
        fileinto "INBOX.SPAM";
}
</code>

In my case, this is a .sieve file in my homedirectory.

More examples are here:
