The mode 700 on your directory would definitely be a problem; mail
delivery is run as cyrus, and cyrus wouldn't be able to stat files in
that directory. However, mode 777 may also be a problem. It's quite
possible that sieve refuses to run if the directory or .sieve file has
too loose permissions, or the .sieve file isn't owned by the correct
user. Try setting the directory to mode 755 and the .sieve file to 644.
