Correct.

No need to fill out a bug ticket. The sentence "/etc/sysconfig/saslauthd
is distributed with MECH=shadow even though cyrus-imapd needs this value
set to MECH=pam" by James B. Byrne is simply not true. I have more than
1 system running with shadow as the saslauthd mechanism, and it works as
it should.
