Greetings, I have had to reinstall my email server on another Linux (centos 7.6) VPS, with a newer version of dovecot, other software and a brand new letsencrypt certificate just for email withpostfix and dovecot (that certificate works fine with postfix).

My hook script for letsencrypt copies the cert and key into /etc/pki/tls/. Check to make sure selinux is not denying access to /etc/letsencrypt for dovecot.
You can also test with gnutls-cli or openssl. E.g.
openssl s_client -host imap.XXXXX -port 993 or gnutls-cli --port 993 imap.XXXXX
