My point was that I'm not gonna install stunnel directly on the mail
server, so even using stunnel for SSL would still require me to find
an IMAP proxy to set in my DMZ and then put stunnel on that.  The fewer
pieces I have to cobble together, the better.  There will be other
less-Linux-fluent admins that may have to deal with this once I get
it installed.

Yeah, I think that's what I remembered doing long ago.
