To use TLS-on-connect, you must make sure that Postfix is configured to
listen on this port for that kind of connection.

Can't Postfix be configured to allow plain text auth only in encrypted
connections OR if the connection comes from localhost?
Another possibility, if SquirrelMail supports is, would be for it to
call the mailer directly (generally, this is done by invoking
/usr/lib/sendmail) instead of making a SMTP connection.

I'm not sure what Thunderbird supports and what it doesn't. But is not
unlikely that some methods are not supported .
