This means the "pwcheck_method" which is configured in your smtpd.conf is
wrong.

Hmm, strange, this looks good. If this is the right Configuration-File, check
if there are Whitespaces or other Characters in the Line (Maybe a DOS CR/LF).
Make a Hexdump.

Another chance is, your Cyrus-SASL is not compiled with saslauthd-Support.

One way to check if this is the right file is to add "login" here. And look if
it appears in the "-- mechanisms on localhost --" Section of saslfinger.
