There are two sieve options for dovecot, Dovecot Sieve for Dovecot 1.2  
and newer and CMU Sieve for Dovecot 1.0 through 1.2.

So dovecot-sieve and later if someone wants the other they could  
create dovecot-cmu-sieve?

When I have this working on my production server, hopefully tonight,  
I'll send my Portfile to the maintainer.
