dovecot - Jul 2014 - Dovecot pigeonhole help sought

I'm running postfix + dovecot + dovecot-pigeonhole
on my CentOS-7 home server.
I would like spam to finish up in ~/Maildir/.Spam/ .
Spam is being marked, but is not separated -
it ends up with all the other email in ~/Maildir/cur/ .
Evidently there is some step I have omitted to take.

I give the output of "sudo doveconf -n" below.
The file ~/.dovecot.sieve reads:
------------------------------
# Sieve Filter

require
["fileinto","regex","envelope","vacation"];

if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" {
        fileinto "/home/tim/Maildir/.Spam/";
}
------------------------------

When I run "sudo systemctl restart dovecot"
I see the line
  Jul 27 18:54:23 alfred dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.2.10 starting up
    for imap, pop3, lmtp, sieve (core dumps disabled)
in /var/log/maillog

Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.

Check the example in Dovecot wiki again:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples#Direct_filtering_using_message_header

It uses: fileinto "Spam";

You can enable 'mail_debug=yes" and Dovecot will log some interesting
information, for example about your fileinto "/full/path/to/.maildir".

Simply:

require ["fileinto"];
if anyof (header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES")
{
        fileinto "Spam";
        stop;
}

You need to pass your mail through dovecot-lda or lmtp
in order to make the SIEVE filters work.

Postfix may not write directly to ~/Maildir/cur/.
