You don't need to add the column sieve as long as do not provide
MamageSieve. I don't know if you use Dovecot's SASL¹ for SMTP-Auth. If
not. you did not need to add the smtp column.
When you don't add the sieve column but provide ManageSieve, the login
will always fail because an SQL error '… unknown column sieve …'


The first example query was wrong, sorry. The correct one would be:
	SELECT user, password FROM tbl WHERE user = '%u' AND %s

See also http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables for further details.
