+Set to:

   sudo nano /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-lda.conf

-    <mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve>
+Set to:

+Finally,
   sudo nano /etc/dovecot/conf.d/20-lmtp.conf
-  <protocol lmtp {>
-    <mail_plugins = quota sieve>
+Which should be:
-  <}>
-  systemctl restart dovecot postfix
+  protocol lmtp {
+    mail_plugins = quota sieve
+  }
+Restart your services ''systemctl restart dovecot postfix'' and it should be active. I was having trouble with Nextcloud mail because it could not locate the default / expected IMAP folders. To mitigate that, set them up to be created automatically as follows:
+  sudo nano /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-mailboxes.conf
+An example block:
+  mailbox Drafts {
+    auto = create
+    special_use = \Drafts
+  }
+Simply add the ''auto = create'' to whichever directories you need.
