That makes sense, because AFAIK port 143 is for TLSv1 only. If the client 
tries anything but TLSv1 on port 143, that should cause an error.

OK, but what did you change? I can't verify if it works because I don't 
have client certificates, but looking at my copy of Thunderbird the 
following account settings *should* work:

Port 143, connect via TLS

Make sure that encryption is set to TLS and *not* to SSL in the account 
settings ...
