That's suspicious.

Let's exclude it is the client which causes the problem: Connect 
directly to the IMAPS server on CLI.

openssl s_client -connect <server ip>:993

You hopefully see a greeting message from the IMAP server. Then issue

a1 LOGIN username password

If you see a success message that you logged in, then everything is fine 
with your cyrus-imapd.

Logout by entering

a2 LOGOUT

If you got that far, the troublemaker is Evolution. Can't help you with 
that one as I am not using it. Validate all the account settings to be 
valid.

Right, irrelevant for your isse.

Cyrus-IMAPd tries to execute the default sieve but there is no sieve 
filter defined for the mailbox. You can ignore that or just configure 
your syslog to not log these debug messages.

Same as above.

So far just activity of the LMTP processes to deliver mail into the mailbox.

Processes get terminated. That's fine.

You really should see your user login in this log file.
