Plaintext AuthenticationThanks for those links. I had a quick look at my config files again,
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/BasicConfiguration
and they seem to allow plaintext authentication (which I don't want).
However, Icedove gives me an error when I try to connect without TLS or
SSL. This is good, but I want to make sure that it is dovecot that is
refusing to cooperate with plaintext connections.
Check Dovecot's log files. What error are you getting? :-?
And then it shows the IP address of my server and my client.
Icedove's error message is:
You cannot log in to you.server.net because the server has disabled
login. You may need to connect via SSL or TLS. Please check the
account settings for your mail server.
One detail I've left out, and the "cannot log in" error makes me wonder
about it: My user is an LDAP account user, and I did not configure
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf. My reason for not configuring it was
that dovecot seemed to work without it (but I initially used SSL, then
TLS).
...Well, there goes that theory. I just created a local (non-ldap) user
on the mail server and I get the same error when trying to connect
without SSL or TLS.
