Hi.
It didn't work. I tried first with {EXTERNAL} and then with {PLAIN} the
result below was the same in both cases.
- OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE
AUTH=EXTERNAL] Dovecot ready. a LOGIN username-from-cert "" a NO [ALERT] Unsupported authentication mechanism. DONE

The tests using SASL and SASL-IR in Thunderbird both fail to
authenticate. I have tried using openssl s_client with the same
result. I've run the auth command in three ways just to be sure I got
the second example right. I even checked to make sure I've spelt my
name right and the case of the letters.EXTERNAL auth works only if this this also works:
a LOGIN username-from-cert ""
i.e. login with empty password.
passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /opt/etc/dovecot/passwd userdb: driver: passwd
/opt/etc/dovecot/passwd Stephen:{EXTERNAL}
So try {PLAIN} here.
