My crystal ball says, it is probably because client drank too much 
whiskey last night.

Ahem... translation...

You'll need to provide a whole lot more information...

Versions? Platform? dovecot -n output?

Not connecting to dovecot via SSL with a self-signed certificate?  
Try opening IE on that machine and going to https://yourmailserver:995
and accept the certificate permanantly.   Then see if Outlook will
connect.

thanks for the tip rick, but that would be strange request to make to a client.
