    OK, I'm not sure why this works, but if I su to the unix account which
    matches the mailbox name of the mailbox I'm trying to run sieveshell for....
    and it works just fine. I had assumed I could be running as root, or
    another account I use to manage stuff.... and just pass in the username with
    a -u parameter.

    I only tried this because I installed the avelsieve squirrelmail plugin.
    Once installed, the plugin worked fine, so I knew authentication worked with
    sieve. That's when it occurred to me to actually su to that unix account,
    and re-run sieveshell.

    Thanks for the help guys. Appreciate it.
    Dan
