Thanks for your help vance
I can now connect via Thunderbird and view mail I have recieved. I tried sending mail and no luck. I also tried sending mail to myself and it seem dovecot is finicky again per the following where it seems to do all this handshake business only to refuse delivery at the end.
Code:

I made slight alteration to the master.cf file to open port 465
Code:
#
# Postfix master process configuration file. For details on the format
# of the file, see the master(5) manual page (command: "man 5 master").
#
# Do not forget to execute "postfix reload" after editing this file.
