At present, I am using dovecot-1.2.17 on another server with a
certificate from StartCom:
$ openssl s_client -connect nyi.unixathome.org:993 -quiet
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE

The server which fails me is running 2.1.16 (was 2.2 before this
morning)
$ openssl s_client -connect imaps.unixathome.org:993 -quiet

Somewhere, somehow, there is something vastly different and not working
you are making it hard to impossible to help you if you are mixing
servers and
their responses and port 993 will *never ever* show STARTTLS because it
is
IMAPS which enforces a encrypted connection and *not* STARTTLS where
the
inital connection is unencrpyted by design
so *please* stay at *one* config, *one* machine and *one* port for
debugging
if the machine in question announces STARTTLS on port 143 it should
work
and that is why i asked if *a different client* than a iPhone is using
STARTTLS on *that* machine with *that config*
Oh I misunderstood. I thought you were suggesting I stop trying to get
this to work,
give in, and *just use another email client*. My apologies.
I was looking for another iPhone email client which was free and did
iMap. I failed. I think I'll
just have to pay for one and try it.
I've run out of time just now. I'll try again soon.
Thank you.
