Can't really help you with your first question, however this second 
question pertains to Postfix and not Dovecot. But yes, from the looks of 
this header it seems TLS is configured correctly, and yes, "no client 
certificate requested" should be here. Unless of course you think you 
have Postfix configured to require client certificate verification. I 
advise you to have a look at the Postfix TLS documentation at 
<http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html>.
