This can be caused due to the environment variable SASL_PATH pointing to the wrong directory. Under SuSE Linux with the default RPMs, it does not need to be set at all. In my case it was set in /etc/profile.local, a leftover from an ancient evaluation of cyrus-imapd (before it was available as RPM). After removing the variable and re-starting cyrus, my sieveshell and timsieved worked properly. (Removing refers to my file /etc/profile.local as well as unsetting ist in all running shells with "unset SASL_PATH" before continuing. Just reboot if that is an option.) Cc'ing this to the list, so other people can easily find it with search engines. -Winfried
