[Dovecot] TLS Issues - Plain Text login?

I'm trying to setup IMAP, so that it works via secure connections. I
have it working fine over SSL, now I wish to get TLS to work.
I have set imap and imaps to both listen on *, and have
disable_plaintext_auth = yes, which according to the docs,
Disable LOGIN command and all other plaintext authentications
unless SSL/TLS is used (LOGINDISABLED capability).
So the problem is now, that TLS doesn't work. Trying it with
thunderbird, I get a message about login being disabled, and to check
my settings and such. The port is correct (imap, not imaps), and I
have it to always use TLS.
I see the following in my logs
Jul 14 16:35:46 mafeking dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login:
rip=58.7.136.163, lip=203.30.47.34, TLS
Any ideas? To me it appears to be using TLS, so why doesn't
thunderbird work? Is it the LOGINDISABLED capa keyword? Is it dovecot
telling Thunderbird the wrong capa when using TLS?
It all works fine with SSL, and the port (in thunderbird) set to the
imaps port. The logs show lines like below when using SSL.
Jul 14 16:36:32 mafeking dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<joeblogs>,
method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured
Any ideas? Or should I just force SSL?
Thanks
