STARTTLS does TLS before sending credentials. That's the point.
"Secure Authentication" probably is something like CRAM-MD5 or, ie. credentials are not sent in the clear (but not necessarily 'secure' by today's standards either) even if STARTTLS isn't supported.

Malakai: Have you tried "Normal (TLS)", ie. STARTTLS on port 143 (plus "Secure Authentication")?
