    Okay, let's try to do this step by step. Please verify first, that cyrus
    is configured to run sieve at all. In /etc/cyrus.conf you should find a
    line like

    SERVICES {
    ...
      sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0
    ...
    }

    also a
    netstat -an | grep ":2000"
    should show, that there is a program listening at Port 2000, preferably
    on localhost.

    a
    telnet localhost sieve
    should show something like this:

    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.2.8"
    "SASL" "LOGIN PLAIN"
    "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress
    relational regex"
    "STARTTLS"
    OK
    > logout
    OK "Logout Complete"
    Connection closed by foreign host.

    The SASL mechanisms should be the same as those you use to login to Imap.

    If you have a system user (with login shell) with a mailbox in Cyrus,
    please login as that user and try to connect to sieveshell with
    sieveshell localhost
    (with no additional parameters)

    Do you now get a prompt for the password?

    Sandy
