more relevant info I believe:

a) the only 2 NON-commented lines in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf are:

auth_mechanisms = plain
!include auth-system.conf.ext

b)  and in /etc/dovecot/toaster.conf:


#grep -v "#" toaster.conf

auth_cache_size = 32M
auth_mechanisms = plain login digest-md5 cram-md5
auth_username_format = %Lu
first_valid_uid = 89
first_valid_gid = 89
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log
login_greeting = Dovecot toaster ready.
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins quota
plugin/quota = maildir
protocols = imap pop3
ssl_cert = </var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
ssl_key = </var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
ssl_dh_parameters_length = 2048

namespace {
  inbox = yes
  location =
  prefix =
  separator = .
  type = private
}

passdb {
  args = cache_key=%u webmail=127.0.0.1
  driver = vpopmail
}

protocol imap {
  imap_client_workarounds = "delay-newmail"
  mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_quota
}

protocol pop3 {
  pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh
  pop3_fast_size_lookups = yes
  pop3_lock_session = yes
}

userdb {
  args = cache_key=%u quota_template=quota_rule=*:backend=%q
  driver = vpopmail
}

plugin {
  quota = maildir:ignore=Trash
  quota_rule = ?:storage=0
}


c) within conf.d/10-ssl.conf file  appears uncommented:

ssl = required


I have changed it to "yes" and "no", restarted dovecot: same error
from this thread's Subject.

d) again in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf
the line invoking vpopmail stuff is also commented

#!include auth-vpopmail.conf.ext


Any thoughts to begin with?

Subject: switched to new toaster: dovecot -ERR [AUTH] Plaintext authentication
    disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS)...


Hello list,

I've installed a new fresh toaster on centos.6.x

Testing POP3 from localhost with dovecot is fine,
but from non-localhost, auth fails with


#telnet <public_ip> 110
Trying <public_ip>...
Connected to public_ip.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Dovecot toaster ready.
user [email protected]
-ERR [AUTH] Plaintext authentication disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS) connections.
quit


"dovecot.conf" file is the usual:
!include toaster.conf
!include_try local.conf

and toaster.conf file has no extra editings:

# Settings for 'stock' qmail-toaster

auth_cache_size = 32M
auth_mechanisms = plain login digest-md5 cram-md5   <===
auth_username_format = %Lu
first_valid_uid = 89
first_valid_gid = 89
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log
login_greeting = Dovecot toaster ready.
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins quota
plugin/quota = maildir
protocols = imap pop3
ssl_cert = </var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
ssl_key = </var/qmail/control/servercert.pem
# the following will likely be the default at some point
ssl_dh_parameters_length = 2048
....


dovecot.log shows lines like this one:

Aug 07 18:46:20 pop3-login: Info: Disconnected (tried to use disallowed plaintext auth): .....


Is it an issue related with MySql ? Another thing to look?


Thanks in advance for your input!


regards
