Hello,
We have a problem similar to that described by Andrew Morgan, ie. sieve
(both sieveshell and sivtest) is not accepting the given password. The
difference is that we use the Cyrus-Imapd (2.2.12-6.fc4) provided by
FC4. We use LDAP and saslauthd is configured to validate the login
against it.
# testsaslauthd -u poltsi -p <password>
0: OK "Success."
Likewise using imtest (as user) works:
$ imtest
WARNING: no hostname supplied, assuming localhost
S: * OK <mailserver> Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12-Invoca-RPM-2.2.12-6.fc4 server

But sivtest fails:
$ sivtest -a poltsi localhost
S: "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.2.12-Invoca-RPM-2.2.12-6.fc4"
S: "SASL" "PLAIN"

S: "STARTTLS"
S: OK
Please enter your password:

<password hash>
S: NO "Authentication Error"
As do sieveshell:
$ sieveshell -u poltsi -a poltsi localhost
connecting to localhost
Please enter your password:
unable to connect to server at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 169, <STDIN>
line 1.
There is nothing helpful in /var/log/maillog:
Dec 5 13:53:24 mail sieve[14763]: executed
Dec 5 13:53:24 mail sieve[14763]: accepted connection
Dec 5 13:53:27 mail master[13998]: process 14763 exited, status 0
The /usr/lib/sasl2/libplain.so exists (provided by
cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.20-5) and following a related discussion on SuSe
mailinglist¹ I checked that the required perl-modules also are
installed.
Of course users are able to log on cyrus-imapd normally to read and
manage their messages through IMAPS.

Running trace on the sieveshell command shows only a very brief
interaction with the timsieved:

Does the timsieved need some additional configuring due to our
authentication system, since we have another installation where the sasl
authentication mech is shadow and that one works beautifully?
With regards,
Poltsi
