mailutils-imap4d troubles: SSL and fetchmail

[Adam Kessel <adam@rosi-kessel.org>]

I recently gave up on uw-imapd for a variety of reasons and switched to
mailutils-imap4d.

Two problems for which I can't find any documentation:

- It doesn't appear to support TLS/SSL.  Although apparently it is built
  with --enable-tls, I don't see TLS advertised by the server, and can't
  connect, e.g., with mutt at imaps://hostname.  Any ideas how to get
  this to work?

- fetchmail no longer works to fetch from the server.  I get the
  following error:

  Error setting mail group: Operation not permitted

  Using the following fetchmail configuration file:

  poll hostname with proto imap:
        plugin "ssh -2 %h /usr/sbin/imap4d" auth ssh;
        mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T"
        keep
 
  This configuration worked fine with uw-imapd.  (I had to change
  /usr/sbin/imapd to /usr/sbin/imap4d).

  I can't find any documentation at all about this error message or how
  to resolve it.

Thanks for any hints.
