One of my accounts was having login failures when trying to send mail, but was
able to check mail.
I tried everything I could think of to see what the issue might be, but
eventually went in and reset the password in the sql database (I knew the
password, so I reset it to the same password).
{SHA256-CRYPT}$5$VuS?
{SHA256-CRYPT}$5$VI7?
So the password was updated properly.
Clients can still login to check mail, but are failing to send mail, so the
password was not the issue.
First, logins in to check mail and succeeds

Postfix logs "Client host rejected: Access denied? but as I said, other
accounts can submit and there?s nothing special in the submission service in
master.cf.
Passwords are all copied/pasted so identical in both IMAP (p993) and SMTP (p587)
settings. Settings for the SMTP server are identical to the other accounts using
the same server.
I don?t know how to login to IMAP via the openssl command line interface, but
this is what happens when I login to the submission port.
? % openssl s_client -connect mail.covisp.net:587 -starttls smtp
?
auth login

(Same results without the terminating ?=?)
I?m sure I am missing something really obvious?

However, before doing so, reference http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html To begin with, I'd suggest adding a "-v" to the smtpd command above, followed by a Postfix reload, and test sending again. If that doesn't reveal your issue re-post to the Postfix list, and include the output of "postconf -n". BTW - I'm assuming the duplicate smtpd_recipient_restrictions line at the end is an email artificat. -- Daniel

Thanks to Mac/iOS account syncing, merely trying to change the port never seemed to work, but removing the account entirely and recreating it got it to connect to port 587 as configured. Does dovecot log the ports if any of the various debug settings are enabled? -- I NO LONGER WANT MY MTV Bart chalkboard Ep. 3G02

(This happens, for example, when there is a transient network problem). You need to disable "Automatically manage connections" to stop these mail readers from wandering around and strictly use your settings. This behaviour can be exploited to grab credentials using a MITM attacks, by convincing MacOSX clients that the target server does not support SSL/TLS, then providing a cleartext listener or proxy.
