-ERR [AUTH] Plaintext authentication disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS)

Localhost connections are considered secure, so SSL/TLS isn't required in that case. In all other cases, a secure (SSL/TLS) connection is required prior to authentication, in order that passwords aren't sent in clear text. This is a default dovecot behavior (for good reason).

To change this setting, you can add:
disable_plaintext_auth=no
to your /etc/dovecot/local.conf file. This is highly discouraged though.

Note, in the QMT configuration, all active configuration parameters are contained in the local.conf and toaster.conf files. All of the configuration parameters in the conf.d directory are for documentation purposes only. This should be pretty clear by examining the dovecot.conf file.

Also, your current non-default dovecot settings can be listed with the:
# doveconf -n
command, to post to the list and/or verify your settings.
