I'm having problems with the iPhone client in the 1.1.1 version of the iPhone software. Things with other clients work fine, and the iPhone worked fine before it was upgraded to 1.1.1.

Works fine here.
The problem is that the client simply doesn't connect to dovecot. I can see the packets passing back and forth in a number of ways, but haven't been able to see the contents. I tried turning on raw logging, but don't get log files for accesses from the iPhone. What I get are lines like so:
Oct 13 00:08:34 bhuda dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected:
rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx2, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx1, TLSTurning off SSL both ways, and the message changes to:
Oct 13 18:21:38 bhuda dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login:
rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx2, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx1Tweaking the logging in the firewall reveals something interesting: apparently the phone makes the connection to 993, then dovecot drops the connection, but the phone keeps sending to it (and yes, I've tried setting the firewall to allow arbitrary traffic between the phone and the server).
Have you tried using port 143? Check the Incoming Mail Server setting
on the iPhone. For port 143, there should just be a Host Name without
":993" appended. ... I haven't tested with port 993. If you're
synching email accounting with your desktop, you'll need to change it
there and resynch - you won't be able to change it on the iPhone
unless you setup the account directly on the iPhone.
So, first question: is anyone who has clients using iPhone software version 1.1.1 working willing to share config information?

Second question: suggestions for things to try to solve the problem? (Other than talk to apple as that process is underway)? For instance, a recipe to sniff the text of the interchange?
Try ssldump. It's probably in ports. If not, you can get it from
http://www.rtfm.com/ssldump/. Make sure you use "-k" with the IMAP
server's key.
Final question: Any other information I can provide that might help debug this?
