So, I changed the $config['managesieve_host'] =

Good to hear it works now :)

Why would using the fqdn work, but not the internal LAN IP address?
The client, here php / roundcube checks if the presented certificate contains the address it connected to and ip addresses are very seldomly added as hosts to certificates.

As a side note, I am now remembering that in my main Roundcube config,
I had to use the fqdn for the imap and smtp server instead of the
internal LAN IP address. Is it because it needs to connect to a host
with the same hostname that the certificate returns? Would it work to
add an entry in my hosts file that says "10.116.0.2  mail.mydomain.com
[1]”? I should be able to use the internal IP addresses, right? Are
there downsides to using the fqdn?

The hosts file entry would help with name resolution but not with certificate verification.

But you can make php think it connects to the correct hostname with the ssl connection options

$config['managesieve_conn_options'] = [
   'ssl'         => [
   'verify_peer'  => false,
   'peer_name' => 'FQDN of mailserver',
   ],
];

This probably even works without the "verify_peer" line, haven't tested.


I may have some questions about configuring sieve rules later, but I
can start a new thread for that.

Any further suggestions? Why do you suppose that the auth
mechanisms
are not being advertised?
The auth mechanisms are not shown because you access from a remote
host, have STARTTLS available and "disable_plaintext_auth = yes"
set. The auth mechanisms will be shown after STARTTLS.
This is described here
https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/ManageSieve/Troubleshooting

One more thing comes to mind regarding the ssl options in the
managesieve plugin config. Do you use a self signed cert in dovecot?

One more thing you could try, in your managesieve plugin
config.inc.php

remove this section:
$config['managesieve_conn_options'] = array(
'ssl' => array(
'verify_peer'       => false,
'allow_self_signed' => true,
),
);

add this section:
$config['managesieve_conn_options'] = [
'ssl'         => [
'verify_peer'  => false,
'peer_name' => 'change to the hostname from dovecots ssl
certificate',
],
];

add in there, when using self-signed cert
'allow_self_signed' => true,
