Server message: Can’t connect to host “tcp://localhost:143

Hello!

I have a problem with the SSL of the mail server

Every time I restart the site server, the SSL of the mail server stops working and gives me an error

"Server message: Can’t connect to host “tcp://localhost:143"”

So I have to reinstall it in the path to make it work again

Is there a way to stop this from happening?

Check if dovecot is running and restart it to see if issue goes away

Post the results of this command

service dovecot status || systemctl status dovecot -l

and

tail /var/log/mail.log
