Grab whichever is the latest version of "sieve_connect".

Use the --passwordfd option; to pipe the password on stdin, use
--passwordfd=0.

The command-line and the process environment are, on the vast majority
of OSes, visible to other users so you need to pass it as _private_
data, so via a pipeline.

If it doesn't connect for you, try invoking with -4 -- this is a bug in
IO::Socket::INET6 which isn't handling IPv4 fallback properly; I've
submitted a patch to fix that.
