Package: cyrus21-imapd
Version: 2.1.17-3
Severity: normal

The defaults in debian do not install the sasl2-modules packet. As a
result timsieved does not offer any authentication method. Most tools
won't work (like sieveshell). See also bug #279401.

This "bug" wastes a lot time for admins. Please consider one of the
following:

(1) Add a warning to some README file. Or add a little piece of docu
    for sieveshell users (I could write it, contact me).
(2) Add sasl2-modules at least as a recommended packet to cyrus
(3) Let timsieved/sieveshell print a warning message

Thanks!
