Real MitM attacks typically don't cause "password incorrect" error messages.

Incidentally, there are two exit relays whose IMAPS traffic is modified by
"security" software:

https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/B40A3DC61FD7C18B8FFFA62FFA98CA7AAF8D8107

The former uses a Fortinet device whereas the latter uses an antivirus scanner.

Cheers,
