Hmm, you are right. It got changed implicitly by Dovecot v2.0 API 
changes. I cannot fix this by myself however. In Dovecot, 
client_auth_begin (src/login-common/client-common-auth.c) statically 
uses login_binary.protocol as the protocol name for SASL authentication 
(in v1.2 I would call the sasl API directly), so there is no way for me 
to alter this to "sieve" because the protocol name for Dovecot is 
"managesieve". Timo will have to create some means to fix this. As we 
have seen earlier, fully changing the protocol name from "managesieve" 
to "sieve" is a bad idea, for one because it causes much confusion.

Timo, can you take a look at this?

Regards,

Stephan.
