Thanks Jan,

I did not have the wrong settings (I had already checked them countless times,
but eventually noticed that the final ?> was missing from the end of the file. I
then got a sensible error saying that there was a login failure. I therefor
checked the pam.d settings for sieve and discovered my customised file
specifying mysql authentication had been overwritten by a default file
specifying local authentication....

I now find vacation is not working but that is another story :-)
