dovecot - Mar 2012 - dovecot 2.1.1 + pigeonhole + avelsieve

Hello all,

I've squirrelmail-webmail-1.4.22, dovecot 2.1.1,
dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole-0.3.0
installed and working. But I've problems to get the avelsieve plugin for 
squirrelmail working with dovecot.

The "Message Filters" show up in "Options" of squirrelmail,
but
"Could not log on to timsieved daemon on your IMAP server ........."

dovecot log shows:

Mar  6 00:00:47 seymour dovecot: managesieve-login: Disconnected: Too many
invalid commands. (no auth attempts in 0 secs): 192.168.28.53, secured

Where to look for configuration error(s)?

Ok, looking forward for any tip,

You should try to capture traffic between client and server with ngrep, e.g.

sudo ngrep -d lo port 4190

However, I've noticed that avelsieve uses STARTTLS even on localhost, so 
if you want to see anything intelligible, you will have to turn that off 
temporarily. As far as I know, there is also a means to instruct 
managesieve-login to write its traffic somewhere (a login 'rawlog'), but
I can't find where it is documented right now.

Why do you have duplicate "quota" entries here? Also,
"sieve" plugin is
missing from lmtp and lda. Still, ManageSieve should accept connections 
with this config.
