Ah, looks-like the problem is in Sieve:
--------
paul at sigmund:~$ sivtest -v localhost
S: "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.1.18-IPv6-Debian-2.1.18-5.1"
S: "SASL" "PLAIN"
S: "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify
subaddress relational regex"
S: OK
Please enter your password:
C: AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" {16+}
AHBhdWwAZXJ1NGJj
S: NO "Authentication Error"
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0
--------

Anybody here knows how to find-out why the authentication does not work?

On another machine (with Cyrus 2.2) everything works fine.

Thanks for you help!

With regards,
