Even your old config is obsolete for v2.3.x (sieve_dir has been obsolete
   for a while now).

 sieve_script personal {
   path = ~/.sieve_storage
   active_path = ~/.sieve
 }

     I've been reading the docs and the migration docs for hours, but the
     sieve config is a mess.

     In 2.3.x I am using:

     plugin {
       sieve = ~/.sieve
       sieve_dir = ~/.sieve_storage
     }

     and this is how it looks in my home dir:

     $ ls -la .sie*

     lrwxrwxrwx     32 a b c d .sieve -> .sieve_storage/MailFilters.sieve
     .rw-------      0 a b c d .sieve.log
     .rw------- 17,414 a b c d 2025-07-08 03:00 .sieve.svbin

     So How do I do the same in 2.4.x?

     I've come so far as:

     sieve_script personal {
       driver = file
     }

     But then there are path, bin_path, active_path, name, and a bunch of
     other settings.

     Sorry to be a little bit frustrated, but my old settings are not out of
     the ordinary (2 freaking parameters), but there is no documentation on
     how to migrate these 2 very simple settings to the new format. The
     upgrade docs explain the new var expansion and a matrix with old and new
     parameters. But this info is completely missing for sieve. The doc only
     points to "script storage". Really?
     You couldn't have added these 2 parameters to the old-new matrix?
     I am not asking you to do this for every single sieve parameter, but at
     least for the 2 or 3 most used ones.

     Sorry for my rant, but I had to get it out there to not go insane.

     Cheers,
       K. C.
