That seems to indicate that the client wasn't happy about the provided authentication options, or you forgot to use STARTTLS with port 143. Try setting auth_mechanisms = plain login and see if it helps.

I did all this & it still gives the same error. I have connected with my android phone with no security with my current setup, however I still get the same error message from Dovecot. May 22 08:54:30 ********** dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (no auth ,attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=***********, lip=***********, ,session=<***********> I've tried to do all sorts of changes in the way that I attempt to login via Thunderbird & it gives me the same error. Any suggestion on how to get Thunderbird to login?
