Re: [Dovecot] [solved] Dovecot not obeying disable_plaintext_auth = yes and how to force/disable encryption

I figured this out. I was testing Dovecot from the machine running Dovecot. I didn't know that when the client address is a local address (even if it's a public one), that Dovecot treats the connection as if it was localhost. I also did not know that Dovecot automatically ignores ssl = required and disable_plaintext_auth = yes for localhost connections. As this renders pretty much my entire email moot, we can call this one solved. :)
