testsaslauthd works flawlessly everytime. I have indeed have the "sasl_mech_list: plain login" line in my imapd.conf also...
It's quite strange as it works the first time I start the cyrus server up, and then any subsequent times results in failure.
For instance, here is an example of the login process...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# /etc/init.d/cyrus21 start
Starting Cyrus IMAPd: cyrmaster.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cyradm -u jb localhost
IMAP Password:
soapbox> lm
user.jb (\HasNoChildren) user.test2 (\HasNoChildren)
user.johnblade (\HasNoChildren)
soapbox> exit
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cyradm -u jb localhost
Password:
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server as user jb
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
Reading the log files from this attempt looks like this for mail.log:

Any ideas?
If you use saslauthd, you forgot to suppress DIGEST-MD5. saslauthd can only
handle plain and login. Add something like "sasl_mech_list: plain login" to
your imapd.conf.
If saslauthd itself works, you can test with "testsaslauthd".
