when i telnet to the sieve instance running with dovecot, i see that SASL is supported, but i cannot get thunderbird to connect to the sieve instance. it seems that i am not providing the right auth methods for sieve to work.

"IMPLEMENTATION" "Dovecot Pigeonhole"
"SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate"
"NOTIFY" "mailto"
"SASL" ""
"STARTTLS"
"VERSION" "1.0"
OK "Dovecot ready."

i am setup with gssapi and pain auth mechanisms and want to leverage Kerberos / SASL for authentication. what do i need to enable (and where) to get sieve working in a MUA? i tried adding the digest-md5 mechanism to the auth_mechanisms directive, but that does not work with Kerberos (or maybe my implementation of Kerberos in my environment).

any ideas where i should be looking?

thanks

brendan
