[Dovecot] Cannot get plaintext auth working on IMAP or POP
Server: Ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition Dovecot 1.1.11
Issue: I have set dovecot.conf with: disable_plaintext_auth = no
but everytime I have a client (Windows Live Mail, ubuntu evolution) connect from the Internet, I have the following type of message: Plaintext authentication disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS) connections.
in my mail.log, I have: Jul 28 15:09:43 "name" dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (tried to use disabled plaintext auth): rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x
Unfortunately I need plaintext auth IMAP.
If I VPN in and use IMAPS, it works a treat - but I can't always do this, hence needing plain old IMAP.
Any ideas anyone? What am I missing?
Cheers, Richard

In which file? /etc/dovecot.conf or /etc/dovecot-postfix.conf

Looks like as would Dovecot not read your settings.

Thanks,
It was using /etc/dovecot.conf
I managed to get it working, by editing the protocol imap { sections
Now just need to get authentication working for postfix in plaintext.
Cheers,
Richard
