Accessing Yandex from RoundCube over SSL

[Sandeepan]

I have installed RroundCube (Using PHP) on a sub-domain (http://email.risc.work) and using Yandex to host mailing services for my domain (http://risc.work).
IMAP is enabled at Yandex and I can access it from Gmail as well using required credential(s)

The config.inc.php file at email.risc.work/htdocs/config/ as configured accordingly as well, as described below

$config['default_host'] = 'ssl://imap.yandex.com';
$config['default_port'] = 993;

$config['smtp_server'] = 'ssl://smtp.yandex.com';
$config['smtp_port'] = 465;
$config['smtp_user'] = '%u';
$config['smtp_pass'] = '%p';

$config['ip_check'] = true;

$config['des_key'] = **<REDUCTED FOR SECURITY>**;

$config['username_domain_forced'] = true;
$config['username_domain'] = 'risc.work';

However, each time I try to login from RoundCube at http://email.risc.work, I am getting error stating Connection to IMAP Server Failed. I am not getting any such issues as being able to successfully send and receive mail using Gmail with exact same credential.

Tagging @Admin and @Ergastolator1 as you helped me to solve similar issues earlier

[Admin]

Did you try to enable debug mode to see if you could get more information. I found this article which lists a few options you could try.

This is what I am getting as error code @Admin

IMAP Error in /home/vol1_1/epizy.com/epiz_24215057/email.risc.work/htdocs/program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_imap.php (196): Login failed for [email protected] from 162.158.154.154(X-Real-IP: 162.158.154.154,X-Forwarded-For: 162.158.154.154). Could not connect to ssl://imap.yandex.com:993: Unknown reason
