and for outlook express but not for apple'mail client.

postfx main.cf
.
.
#authentication

#smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
smtpd_sasl_exceptions_networks = $mynetworks
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth
# TLS parameters
.
.
Dovecot dovecot.conf
ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
ssl_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u/Maildir

socket listen {
master {
