kmail: problem making sieve vacation messages work

Hi,

Ingo Klöckner from kmail fame suggested to reraise my issue
here, since 
kolab is using the cyrus imap server, and hopefully somebody
is using 
kmails vacation feature successfully here (even a negative
result would 
help to decide to report this bug):

I'm trying to get the kmail sieve vacation messages going,
but failed 
so far:

On the server, I use cyrus-imapd 2.3.8, and operating on the
sieve scripts 
with sieveshell and with kmail "Manage Sieve
scripts" (freely translated 
from german) works fine for my diverse accounts (the receive
account 
settings are fine ("server supports sieve" and
"use system and user account 
data" activated)), but selecting "Configure
"Out of Office" Replies", 
activating it, and pressing Ok leads to:
Ungültige Adresse (URL): sieve://hpimap.local.site:2000/?x-mech=PLAIN.
if using plaintext login, with TLS or without any
encryption,
or
Ungültige Adresse (URL): sieve://hpimap.local.site:2000/?x-mech=DIGEST-MD5.
if using digest-md5 login. 

I'm trying to use this feature since kmail 1.8 and cyrus
imap 2.2.12 without 
success.

I already browsed through the source, but failed to being
able to locate the 
issue :-(.. While the code looks promising, I (and my other
users) would 
love to see it in action ..

One thing, I don't like in the logic (even without seen it
running..): To 
make this feature fully usable, it should provide a way to
select the 
account, where the sieve script is activated. Now, it simply
takes the 
first account with the sieve option enabled. 

Could someone give me hints on how to debug this problem
further?

TIA,
  Pete

build myself]

Use tcpdump, to dump the network packets.

Record the traffic using sieveshell then compare it with
what kmail generate.
use
# tcpdump  -n -i lo -s 4096 -X port 2000
or
# tcpdump  -n -i eth0 -s 4096 -X port 2000

Try to reconize our login, password, command, ...
The protocol is very easy to understand.
