  I have figured out how to get sieve to work.  It wasn't clear at first but 
it is now:

   1) /kolab/var/imapd/log/lmtpd.log is your friend.
   2) In order to use fileinto, you need to know that the mailboxes are 
specified as follows:
     fileinto "user/username at some^host^name/path/to/folder";

    "user" is literal, "user at some^host^name" needs to be replaced, as does the 
path/to/folder of course.

    Example script:

require ["fileinto"];
if header :contains ["List-Id"] ["<kroupware.mail.kde.org>"] {
	fileinto "user/staikos at kde^org/KDE/Kroupware";
}

Don't forget that you must "put" the script with the sieve client and then 
activate it.

Hopefully this information is useful.
