When I try to connect using either the iOS Mail app, or Outlook mail app, nothing happens at al with ssl, and if I use plain login the iOS device tells me I have either the username or password wrong - which I haven't.
Some mail readers have auto-discover features that are rather stupid. If possible, manually configure the SSL style (TLS/STARTTLS) and port rather than letting it guess.
To diagnose whether it is some dovecot config error, you can manually connect with both flavours of SSL
openssl s_client -connect 192.168.0.15:993
... or ...
openssl s_client -starttls imap -connect 192.168.0.15:143then if it gets past the SSL handshake,
a login <user> <password>to test the authentication part. This will at least tell you whether it's a client side or server side issue. (However, since it is working with other client, it's probably a client side issue.)
