Thanks! I disabled sieve successfully and can run doveadm without a problem, although I'm still getting
Info: passwd-file: unknown user
upon trying to authenticate. My passwd file is just in a
username:passwordformat at the moment, do I need to have a full userdb passwd file with the extra fields? Other than that I'm not sure what could be causing this.
I'd also like to be using sieve so hopefully disabling it is just a short-term workaround, may be an Alpine packaging issue with pigeonhole.
Finally figured it out—it was a simple syntax error of using $ for variables instead of %, eg ${user | username}. Replaced them with % signs and I am now able to authenticate. No progress on the pigeonhole issue though I assume that is an Alpine issue and may be fixed by package maintainers.
