As you can see, timsieved doesn't list "SASL" "PLAIN" like it should,
thus when using managesieve I get the error
sasl mech list empty
Isn't the whole point of enforcing STARTTLS to prevent the advertising
of plaintext mechanisms? If sieved is like any other daemon, it won't
show these options until after the TLS session is initiated. You know
it's working because, well, it works, but you can also run tcpdump to
ensure that it's actually being encrypted (you'll see gibberish).
I don't actually use sieve, but maybe managesieve has a -tls option,
like the one recently added to cyradm.
