sieve authentication problem

[lists at mhcsoftware.de]

hi,

i've installed cyrus from debian packages:

ii  cyrus21-admin  2.1.16-10      Cyrus mail system (administration tool)
ii  cyrus21-common 2.1.16-10      Cyrus mail system (common files)
ii  cyrus21-imapd  2.1.16-10      Cyrus mail system (IMAP support)
ii  libcyrus-imap- 2.1.16-10      Interface to Cyrus imap client imclient 
libr
ii  libsasl2       2.1.19-1.5     Authentication abstraction library
ii  libsasl2-dev   2.1.19-1.5     Development files for authentication 
abstrac
ii  libsasl2-gssap 2.1.19-1.1     GSSAPI  module for SASL using MIT Kerberos
ii  libsasl2-krb4- 2.1.19-1.1     Kerberos4  module for SASL using MIT 
Kerbero
ii  libsasl2-modul 2.1.19-1.5     Pluggable Authentication Modules for SASL
ii  libsasl7       1.5.28-6.4     Authentication abstraction library
ii  sasl-bin       1.5.28-6.4     Programs for manipulating the SASL users 
dat
ii  sasl2-bin      2.1.19-1.5     Programs for manipulating the SASL users 
dat

the system's auth system is completely managed by ldap (pam, nss). i'm usig 
saslauthd with mech ldap and this config:

ldap_servers: ldap://localhost/
ldap_search_base: dc=bange-verlag,dc=de

impap authentication works as expected. but sieve does not. whe i use 
sivtest i get:

sivtest -u andrea -a andrea localhost
S: "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.1.16-IPv6-Debian-2.1.16-10"
S: "SASL" "PLAIN"
S: "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress 
relational regex"
S: OK
Please enter your password:
C: AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" {28+}
YW5kcmVhAGFuZHJlYQBhbmRyZWE=
S: NO "Authentication Error"
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0

i can't track this down, because timsievd does not log any thing while this 
test. the only log's i have are my ldap logs:
