Let me echo that statement, since it looks like you're logging in as root!
Your password is now publicly known.

Try:

testsaslauthd -u username -p password
testsaslauthd -u username -p password -s sieve
testsaslauthd -u username -p password -s imap

Do you get different answers?

If not, can you include the output of 'grep sasl /etc/imapd.conf'?
(assuming there is no sensitive information), and the contents of your
/etc/default/saslauthd?
