You could see if auth_debug=yes shows more. Although debugging PAM
problems is annoying because PAM's logging is so bad.
I find the message in the audit.log interesting because I configured
the connection with SSL not TLS, but if I use TLS the result is the
same.
I think you're confusing SSL and TLS with imaps port and STARTTLS
command (and so do many client UIs..). You're going to be using TLS
connections in any case.
