The PLAIN-Plugin is installed, PLAIN-authentification using pop3 or
imap works well.

I'm checking the passwords using pam_mysql.so, the /etc/pam.d/sieve
is the same like /etc/pam.d/pop and imap.

I've done some tests yesterday, when i try to log in using imtest
localhost -p 2000 -u $username i have no problem loggin in, works fine.

But if I try the same using web-cyradm i got the "Couldn't find mech
PLAIN"-stuff in my log and the login doesn't work.

Using imtest:
Sep 11 09:30:19 localhost imap[801]: login: localhost [127.0.0.1]
$username plaintext User logged in

Using cyradm:
Sep 11 09:24:29 localhost sieve[690]: badlogin: localhost[127.0.0.1]
PLAIN no mechanism available

Why I'm wonder is the fact, that imtest using imap service to
authenticate and cyradm is using sieve...but both things are using
port 2000 to connect to....
