I'm having a problem with authentication. I can get/read/send mail fine through Cyrus, Sendmail. But when I try to authenticate to sieve, it's failing. This started happening after updating Cyrus on FreeBSD-7.0, where I currently have: cyrus-imapd-2.3.11 cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.22 I have SASL using the sasldb, that all seems to work. But I can't authenticate via "imtest" at all. And the results below "might" be a clue as to what's wrong, and I hope someone can point it out - it's probably obvious and I'm just overlooking it. I'm using Smartsieve to manage my scripts, and this is where I first noticed the problem. I've tried every mech that is enabled with imtest, and no luck. That I can get my mail via IMAP (over SSL) and not get imtest to work is strange.
