OK further digging - running saslauthd -a pam -d

shows me that 

sieveshell -a alec localhost

does indeed authenticate but sieveshell reports an authentication
failure anyway...

unable to connect to server at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 169, <STDIN>
line 1.

so I have tried substituting the fqdn for localhost, no change

I can telnet to timsieve and it responds...

# telnet localhost sieve
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
"IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.2.12-Invoca-RPM-2.2.12-1"
"SASL" "PLAIN"
"SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress
relational comparator-i;ascii-numeric regex"
"STARTTLS"
OK

and I even computed md5sum against /usr/bin/sieveshell on this system
and another that is working and they are the same.

I'm stuck - help
