Hi Robert

The logs I supplied were derived from "verbose_ssl = yes". I supplied
the lines where it differs from regular requests and suppressed a ton
of SSL output. I don't trust the Outlook logs, too, but supplied them
for completeness.
There are no auth issues in the dovecot log, since the TLS/SSL
handshake isn't successful. (Auth works without TLS/SSL which is also
an indication.)
The Win8 machine was a fresh install, no firewall or antivirus, just
Win8.1 from scratch + Outlook 2013.

I've seen the mailtraq forum post, too. Unfortunately the registry
patch isn't available for download.
I haven't seen the other (lynclog) link and will try the registry
patch as soon as I have access to my win8 test machine tomorrow.
Thanks for this link. I will also give the ssl_cipher_list a try, thanks.
I will post my results here.

(2.1.7 is old, however since it ships with Debian Weezy I guess I'm in
good company :) )

Thanks for your input
Sebastian
