Hi Brian,
yes sounds likely, I am attempting to authenticate using the text:
LOGIN username password
and I always recieve the error:
LOGIN BAD Error in IMAP command received by server.
With zero logged to the debug log... With courier IMAP this works by
default, I guess by default it doesnt work with dovecot...
thanks Andy.

What did you use? What did you see in response? Correct syntax is simply
a login username password
... although now I come to think of it, you may need to enable this in
dovecot.conf first, since by default it won't allow a plaintext login over
an unsecured channel.
