depends from the definition / interpretation of "connection"...

At least your telnet out and the sieveshell dialogue suggests that there is 
any issue on the auth stage over a proper TCP connection:

>> Please enter your password: 
>> unable to connect to server at /usr/local/bin/sieveshell line 202, 
<STDIN>...

i remember, that IMAP / POP3 connections / authentication was "working", only 
sieve was not (because of some special dependency within the regarding code). 
Took me several days to fugure that out.

...and if i remember right, sieveshell expects ssl/tls (even if this is not 
used / required in any cyrus sieve setup).

But this is just a shot in the dark with fragments of my similiar experience 
from my mind.


hth,


niels.
