Deliver + sieve is working great.  By setting the sieve variable to
"sieve", a non-hidden file, it doesn't appear in the folder list.  I
made a similar change to pysieved to use a non-hidden folder - in
combination with avelsieve and squirrelmail I now have a
user-maintainable server-side filter solution.  Awesome!

Is there a hidden "gotcha" I'm missing here?  It's doing exactly what
I want!
Everything that would for some reason go into the users homedir, you
would be able to reach via Imap.

If I were you, I'd make home and mail point to a different directory,
which could be as simple as home=/var/mail/%d/%n
mail=/var/mail/%d/%n/Maildir. This way, dovecot will only look for mail
in the $HOME/Maildir, but still can do administrative stuff in $HOME.

Grts,

What "administrative stuff"? These directories are used exclusively for mail - if any user actually has a local account their home folders are located under "/home" - but I don't want that mixed with mail service at all.
