Re: [stunnel-users] almost working

It sounds like there is already a process listening on port 993.
Netstat -l would show you what process that is. I haven't worked with
imap so I don't know the details, but one basic approach would be to run
the imap process on a open non-standard port and have stunnel listen on
on 993 and forward to that port. The requester also needs to know use
stunnel to connect to imap.

Another approach might be as follows:

client stunnel.conf

[imaps]
accept = 127.0.0.2:993
connect = server:20993
client = yes

Server stunnel.conf

[imap-in]
accept = 20993
connect = 993
client = no

The 20993 could be any open port. With this setup, you use 127.0.0.2
rather than the Server IP address to get to imap.
