Unexpected config results with local_name + multiple SSL certs

Working with SSL on fresh install of latest Ubuntu Artful + Dovecot
seems broken somehow.

Application is Dovecot listening for many SSL sites...

Likely I've missed adding something simple to the config, related
to local_name usage.

Be great if someone can point out what I've missed, to setup
multiple SSL certs for different host.domain entries in config.

Thanks.
_______

This works as expected... where the SNI server name is returned...

#local_name imap.cydec.com {
    ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/imap.cydec.com/fullchain.pem
    ssl_key = </etc/letsencrypt/live/imap.cydec.com/privkey.pem
#}

service dovecot restart && echo QUIT | openssl s_client -connect
imap.cydec.com:993 -servername imap.cydec.com 2>&1 | egrep ^subject
subject=/CN=imap.cydec.com
_______

This fails...

local_name imap.cydec.com {
    ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/imap.cydec.com/fullchain.pem
    ssl_key = </etc/letsencrypt/live/imap.cydec.com/privkey.pem
}

service dovecot restart && echo QUIT | openssl s_client -connect
imap.cydec.com:993 -servername imap.cydec.com 2>&1 | egrep ^subject
# Empty, so no servername match
_______

Full openssl output shows no cert being returned...

service dovecot restart && echo QUIT | openssl s_client -connect
imap.cydec.com:993 -servername imap.cydec.com

Be great if someone has suggestions of how to fix this.

Thanks.

Doesn't this still require a default t(top level) cert besides the one
specified for local_name?

Also, is there any reason to use local_name if your local name matches your
server? the point is to be able to provide a cert for example.org when your
domain is example.com, right?

   A default cert is always needed. If you have only one certificate don't
use local_name.
