Hi!
The sieve scripts in global namespace don't work for any user unless that user
explicitely includes the global sieve script in their own sieve script. You
can't just create a global sieve script and expect it to apply for all your
users; you're going to have to create a way to modify the sieve script of each
user to include your global sieve script (should be easy with the excellent
perl modules, see their documentation). And then there's always the option
for your users to remove that include rule.
For shared mailboxen, you can add an annotation. The name of the annotation is
'sieve' and the value is the name of the sieve script. See man
Cyrus::IMAP::Admin, command mboxcfg, for how to add annotations.

I am using Squirrelmail as a web based from end for my remote users and imagine the package manager must have installed this at some point. To simplify my life I re-wrote the script as:
