[Dovecot] dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (tried to use disabled plaintext auth): method=PLAIN

[John Espiro]

Hi Paul -

Well, I want to use STARTTLS... my Thunderbird settings are:

In thunderbird, I have the following settings:
Port 110
Username: <user>
Connection security: STARTTLS
Authentication: Normal password

Which should be correct, right?

John
