Hello,
this is basically a repeat of this query from last year, which
unfortunately got a deafening silence for replies:

I have mostly 2.1.7 (Debian Wheezy) mailbox servers and the current proxies
are also of that vintage.
So with "ssl=yes" and "disable_plaintext_auth=no" plaintext logins work,
as per the documentation
(http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL/DovecotConfiguration)
and historically expected.
Trying to use a 2.2.24 (Debian Jessie backports) dovecot proy with the
same parameters fails like this:

Aug 2 15:45:57 smtp12 dovecot: pop3-login: proxy(chibixxx at gol.com): Login failed to mbxx.xxx.gol.com:110: Plaintext authentication disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS) connections.: user=<chibixxx at gol.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x, pid=16066
---
Changing things to "ssl=no" doesn't help and setting trusted networks only
changes the last bit to have "secured" appended but still fails the same
otherwise.
I really need 2.2.x to behave the same way as before and documented.
Any ideas and feedback would be most welcome.
Regards,
Christian
