openssl will. Also look into stunnel, which will wrap any regular imap daemon into an SSL socket. The stunnel documentation should also tell you how to generate a certificate with openssl. It should also be in the list archives, and in a HOWTO somewhere, but if you need help, I can go look at my system log to see the command I used when I was setting up my imap/ssl server -- just ask.
I thought as much. I used ssl for putting together an installation of apache-ssl before. But there is a comment in the courier-imap that says you have to get a Certified one. I thought this was the reason -- commercial applications are not programmed to readily accept these certs.
My biggest problem now is that the imap installation and qmail are having a fight. I am unable, through mozilla, to delete (move to trash) email or create new folders. I'm a little hesitant to dive into it much right now since it fried my mozilla installation and I had to do it all over again.
But first, I really should install something like pine to attempt to isolate the problems/interactions between qmail/imap/mozilla.
I am looking for suggestions on what imap daemon might be best. I don't need much. ssl would be very nice, but not required. My biggest concerns are security (always) and qmail (~/Maildir) compatability. An alternative to Maildir would be to pipe everything from qmail into procmail as someone suggested.
