TLSv1 with cipher AES256-SHA (256/256 bits new) no authentication

I think you need to use either TLS or SSL but not both at the same time.

If you listen on the regular imap port, then clients will connect and  
issue a START_TLS command and the session will be encrypted.

When you connect to imaps the session is already encrypted with SSL,  
so  trying to start TLS doesn't get you anything.

To stop unsecured logins on the imap port you also want to set

allowplaintext: no
