Dovecot doesn't know anything about ldaps, and it doesn't need to know.
It's entirely up to the LDAP library to support it. Anyway as far as I
know ldaps connections should work with Dovecot and OpenLDAP, I've never
tried to use them myself though.

Unfortunately OpenLDAP's error reporting is horrible. You'll have to
recompile it with debugging enabled if you want to get anything else
than "connection failed" out of it.
