In my experience, the sievescript names _should_ not _start_ with a dot.
A dot somewhere in
the script name is no problem though.

Could you please try compiling your sieve script using sievec?

/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/sievec <your_script> /tmp/sieve.bc

If your script doesn't issue an error there, we need to dig into
sieveshell/installsieve to find
the problem there. However if sievec returns an error, your script is
wrong in some aspect.
