-I've got it working with cyrus 2.0 and 2.1, so I'll give some pointers

-whichever version of sasl you need with it.

-Cyrus 2.0
----------
-
-- sasl must be configured with `--with-pam --enable-plain'; it doesn't
-  hurt to add `--disable cram --disable-digest'
-- imapd must be configured with `--with-auth=unix' (sounds like you got
-  that right)
-- in imapd.conf you need the line
-	sasl_pwcheck_method: PAM
-- in /etc/pam.d/imap (on FreeBSD I believe you use /etc/pam.conf, but
-  the idea is similar) you need
-  	auth  required  pam_pwdfile.so pwdfile /path/to/passwordfile
-	account  required  pam_permit.so
-- make sure your password file is readable by user cyrus
-
-The idea of all this is to use the SASL PLAIN mechanism to get the
-password in plaintext and then get SASL to leave the authentication to
-PAM, which will use pam_pwdfile.
-
-Cyrus 2.1
----------
-
-- same as above, but different ;) in the details
-- sasl must be configured with `--with-pam --with-saslauthd
-  --enable-plain' and I disable the rest (checkapop, digest, otp, krb4,
-  etc.)
-- imapd should be configured with `--with-auth=unix'
-- in imapd.conf you need the line
-	sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
-- start up saslauthd with `saslauthd -a pam'
-- you need the /etc/pam.d/imap as above, as well as (an identical)
-  /etc/pam.d/sieve if you use timsieved
-
-I think that about covers it.  One tricky bit with SASL is to get the
-right mechanisms advertised; I do this by only compiling in support for
-PLAIN and LOGIN.  If the rest don't exist they can't cause problems.
