I'm trying to adapt http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/ImapcProxy
to our Exchange Server, which has LOGINDISABLED on Port 143, and I
offering LOGIN on Port 993.

How do I go about this?

Simply changing imapc_port to:
imapc_port = 993
doesnt work:

Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot (Ubuntu) ready.
. LOGIN hildeb password
. NO [UNAVAILABLE] Temporary authentication failure. [mproxy:2014-05-16 09:33:23]
. LOGOUT
* BYE Logging out
. OK Logout completed.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Logs:

May 16 11:33:04 mproxy dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.2.9 starting up (core dumps disabled)

But why is it still using port 143?
