Maybe the iPhone simply requires tls? I just checked mine and I don't
see any way to enable or disable TLS on the iPhone SMTP settings of the
mail account, itself.
Just guessing...

My opensmtpd server does not use TLS nor does it have certs - it does NOT

pki example.com cert "/etc/ssl/example.com.crt"

.. and I did not create any cart/key for this server.
On my iphone I did NOT select "Use SSL" and my auth is simple "password".
OpenSMTPD doesn't suport auth without TLS. It doesn't even advertise
auth without TLS[0]. So to get your server working you need to get an
TLS cert (bonus points if it's trusted by your iphone). Add a pki
to your smtpd config. Then add something like:
... tls pki $pkiname auth[-optional] ...
I don't understand how this can be as I am using my non-tls opensmtpd
server from other clients with username and password auth and it works
fine without tls....
That is: my opensmtpd server has a username/password in the actual
/etc/passwd file and if I give that user/pass along with the hostname
to a primitive mail client, it works. I can send mail with that
password auth.
I just can't do it with the iphone.
Maybe we mean different things by "auth" ?
