       Sieve-specific debug levels:

       trace1  -  print parse tree before optimization trace2  -  print parse tree after optimization trace3   -
       print  parser  traces  trace4   -   print  tests  and  actions being executed trace9  -  print each Sieve
       instruction being executed

       Compatibility   debug   flags:   g   -   main   parser   traces   T   -   mailutils   traces   (same   as
       --debug-level=sieve.trace0-trace1)  P  -  network protocols (same as --debug-level=sieve.=prot) t - sieve
       trace   (same   as   --debug-level=sieve.=trace4)   i   -   sieve    instructions    trace    (same    as
       --debug-level=sieve.=trace9)
