17:46:11 +0100 regarding 2.3.11 STARTTLS broken if tls_ca_file is defined:

Not in the first example. "plain+TLS" means that a password was used. So 
does logging in via TLS on port 143 work if you use a password instead of a 
certificate? It's possible that authenticating with a certificate was 
broken with the changes from 2.3.10 to 2.3.11.

Revert to 2.3.10?

If you want to help find out what's going in, please increase logging for 
Cyrus to the debug level (in syslog.conf). That should show much more 
detailed logging.
