On a hunch I tried using this:
zmprov ms mx1.example.com zimbraRemoteManagementPort 8022

zmcontrol stop && zmcontrol start

I tried the mail queues gui again and The error message changed to show the port number modification I made:

Message: system failure: exception during auth {RemoteManager: mx1.example->zimbra@mx1.example.com:8022}

This is obviously different from the first error -- is it possible that the remote management relies on the system ssh daemon ?

please clarify.
