Solved! It looks like my mobile data provider (Vodafone) is interfering 
with traffic to port 143 to hide STARTTLS. I'll probably never find out the 
official reason but I suspect a weak attempt to allow them to intercept 
viruses.

By modifying router to allow IMAP to use a different port I've got it 
working again.
