Thanks paludi,
Ad i told , My main requirement is to trigger a script "abhishektest.sh "whenever a mail come to a user say "abhishek" in my unix server. I dont have root permission.
So, for doing this
1) in /etc/mail/aliases : i need to ask admin to configure so that mail will route through a script.
e.g.
abhishek : "|/export/home/abhishek/bin/wr_test.sh
2) in wr_test file : i need to put this line, as i have to switch user from root to abhishek.
/usr/local/bin/sudo -u abhsihek /export/home/abhishek/bin/abhishektest.sh
and ask admin to set NOPASSWD rule for this command.
Please let me know if anything wrong in this procedure.or anything else need to be added.

sieveshell --help
DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress.
The following commands are recognized:
list list scripts on server.
put <filename> upload script to server.
get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout
delete <name> delete script.
activate <name> activate script.
deactivate deactivate all scripts.
OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user
The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials.
-a authname, --authname=authname
The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user).
-r realm, --realm=realm
The realm to attempt authentication in.
-e script, --exec=script
Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
