You may not want to do that just yet. I just did some experiments,
and the Sieve script:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
require "vacation";
vacation
:days 1
:subject "Out of office until 2007"
:mime "
From: B. Johannessen <xxx@???>
I'm out -- send mail to 2";
fileinto "INBOX";
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Resulted in the following reply:

I'm out -- send mail to 2r AS filter,

"fileinto"; in line 9
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, the script is clearly in error for not "require"-ing "fileinto",
but I don't think that's any excuse to include parts of one of my
(SQL) queries in the reply (additionally I'm not sure I'm using the
:mime parameter correctly, but again I don't think that's an excuse
for the observed behavior either).

My thinking was that a script /test/ should never write anything to that
directory, so it wouldn't hurt just to hard-code it when running the
test. I could be wrong though...
And one last question: In a virtual environment would it be safe to use
one sieve_vacation_directory for all users?
