Is there a way to access mails in dovecot via https?
Why on earth would that be beneficial?
"The Internet Message Access Protocol, Version 4rev1 (IMAP4rev1) allows a client to access and manipulate electronic mail messages on a server." (RFC 3501)
Putting it bluntly: Learn to use the protocol specifically designed for the task at hand, not a protocol with different design goals that you happen to know better.
Stateless, http and URLs are the future. JavaScript running on in browser or mobile phone can't connect to IMAP/SMTP.
AFAIK you can't sent a link/URL to a mail on a shared folder to a friend. Like "Hi bob, she loves me. See this message from here https:/...../"
