Because it is using the c-client only, not the PHP-based IMAP client.

Because c-client rejects the login before we even have an opportunity to
call the PHP imap client.

If that is the case, then there is something borked in your PHP install.

That is a totally bogus statement.

Directly from servers.php.dist:

*           The ssl and tls options will only work if you've compiled PHP
*           against a SSL-enabled version of c-client, used the
*           --with-imap-ssl and --with-openssl flags when compiling PHP,
*           and you have a mail server server which supports SSL.
