[Dovecot] Dovecot SSL issues

Quoting Tom Hendrikx <tom at whyscream.net>:

If you use imap/ssl/novalidate-cert it will ignore the mismatch.

The cerificate is fine, just a hostname mismatch as Tom Hendrikx said.

True.  Or add /novalidate-cert, which would remove the error, but still
consume the cycles.  The novalidate-cert would also ignore any self-signed
certificate warnings...
