Could you give me some more information, i.e. your config, what client
you test with and (if possible) a log of the connection. This way I can
reproduce the situation. The managesieve patch should support all SASL
mechanisms supported by dovecot. In fact, I only test using PLAIN. 

Most likely the problem relates to the fact that, unless configured
otherwise, dovecot will refuse to use plain text SASL mechanisms if the
connection is not encrypted. I haven't re-tested the STARTTLS command in
the last versions... I will give it a go.
