I can't recall if we previously discussed it, but, why the fascination with imaps, why not use TLS on 143, or wont that connect either? tried pop3 TLS ? pop3s?
and when you test, use -CAfile /path/to/(startssl's)CA.pem
I see no auth mech statement, so using hte default is limited, IIRC, 
login is re

auth_mechanisms = plain login

hardly

and the size is not his problem.

he was given a test account on my network when I last saw this thread (few weeks back?), that uses startssl, and 4096 certs, his mail.app connected fine.
I would like to investigate that more if you like.  Others have
experienced problem connected to my test server.  I can't believe I've
created a non-functional Dovecot configuration.

One avenue I will purse: if I swap from 4096 to 2048, why does it work?

Here is a connection with a 4096 cert:

$ openssl s_ s_client -connect imaps.unixathome.org:993
CONNECTED(00000003)
depth=2 /C=IL/O=StartCom Ltd./OU=Secure Digital Certificate
Signing/CN=StartCom Certification Authority
verify error:num=19:self signed certificate in certificate chain
verify return:0

Here is it with a 2048 cert:

$ openssl s_client -connect imaps.unixathome.org:993

The only thing I change in the configuration is:

# MY KEYS
#ssl_cert = </usr/local/etc/ssl/dovecot.pem
#ssl_key  = </usr/local/etc/ssl/imaps.unixathome.org.nopassword.key

# My 2048 key
ssl_cert = </usr/local/etc/ssl/2048/test1.langille.org.BUNDLE.cert
ssl_key  = </usr/local/etc/ssl/2048/test1.langille.org.nopassword.key

Current configuration is:

# doveconf -n
# 2.2.6: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
