Bug Description
If you use the option
auth_ssl_
Then no matter how carefully you follow the documentation are all the attempts provide support your clients (e.g. Thunderbird) will fail to connect to the dovecot mail server. This issue does not with cyrus-imap mail server.
I have investigated the code and believe I have found and fixed the issue (the attached patch makes verification of client side SSL certificates work for me, which is NOT true without the patch).
Basically the OpenSSL logic is wrong when it comes to setting up the client side verification.
I have a DebDiff against Trusty that fixes the issue. (Attached).

The attachment "Fix client certificate verification fails for dovecot" seems to be a debdiff. The ubuntu-sponsors team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review and hopefully sponsor the debdiff. If the attachment isn't a patch, please remove the "patch" flag from the attachment, remove the "patch" tag, and if you are member of the ~ubuntu-sponsors, unsubscribe the team.
