Can't authorize as different user in cyradm and sieveshell

[Dan White]

In the absence of an [sasl_]auxprop_plugins statement, all plugins will be
queried. For example, running pluginviewer (or saslpluginviewer on debian)
should typically list sasldb if it's installed on your system.

The canon_user plugins and auxprop plugins are coded within the same code,
and so are tied together somewhat, although I haven't dug into the code to
explain the error Michael is experiencing.

Michael,

I'd suggest installing the sasldb auxprop to see if that clears up the
issue. That may not even require a configuration change.
