Can't connect to timsieved (2.3.14)

[Rich Wales]

An addendum to my original problem/question:

I tried using "sivtest".  When I did "sivtest -v localhost" (on the
server itself), I got the following:

So far, so good.  But right after the above, I got a bunch of unprintable
garbage -- and when I tried typing something, this was the response:

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Protection error: decoding error: generic failure; SASL(-1): generic failure:
Unable to find a callback: 32775
Connection closed.

I then tried "sivtest -v whodunit" from another machine on my local
network (not my server), and it appeared to work (i.e., I was able to
type a ManageSieve command and get a coherent response):

"sieve-connect" still fails, as I described earlier, whether I try it
on the server or some other host.
