If the server reports that it supports the IMAP STARTTLS extension,
imapfilter tries to negotiate a TLS encrypted connection.  STARTTLS is
the one of the two ways you can have an encrypted connection, the other
being an SSL wrapped imaps (port 993) connection.

Probably, this error is because of a failed STARTTLS negotiation.
Running imapfilter with the -v option should give us a clue whether this
is the case.

I wonder why the SSL negotiation failed... whether it is a bug of
imapfilter, a badly configured server, SSL version incompatibility, etc.

In any case you can compile imapfilter without SSL_TLS support:
	
  $ ./config -o ssltls=no
  $ make
