So, does disable_plaintext_auth=yes automatically change the imap listen port to 993, or would I then nees to also set 'ssl_listen: 993' (if so, wouldn't that seeting be more appropriately named tls_listen? ;) ?
No it will only disable plaintext authentications over a unsecure channel. so if you want to force SSL/TLS you should use ssl=required as Timo said.
Ok, still a little confused...
To do this 'right'...
protocols = imap disable_plaintext_auth = yes ssl = required
and just use the default standard imap port of 143?
Yeah. And sure you can keep imaps port open too.
If you have only auth { mechanisms = plain } enabled, disable_plaintext_auth=yes and ssl=required does basically the same thing.
