Well, the whole point of sieve, I believe, is to make it
something that an admin would want to let arbitrary users
modify on their own recognizance, and the ability to specify
arbitrary programs to run would be just *asking* to be hacked.

Meaning what? Is the dovecot process still alive? Is the service

Occasionally, I get mail that's missing a Date header. The usual
suspects are iTunes weekly mailings and NYTimes email-to-a-friend

Replace mail_get_date() calls in src/imap/imap-sort.c with something
