That's for *Cyrus* SASL, but since you mention "dovecot", perhaps you're
using "dovecot" SASL, check your "smtpd_sasl_type" parameter setting.

Dovecot has its own mechanism list, while Postfix has a mechanism list
filter.  You should be able to set:

    smtp_sasl_mechanism_filter = plain

or, in dovecot.conf, set:

    auth_mechanisms = plain
