TLS, IMAP over SSL (imaps) and pop3 over SSL (pop3s)
TLS
Modify / append the TLS-settings in /etc/imap.conf:
#--- SSL/TLS setting ---# tls_ca_path: /etc/ssl/certs tls_ca_file: /etc/ssl/certs/ca_cert.pem tls_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/station7_cert.pem tls_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/station7_key.pem
SSL for imap - imaps
Modify / append the SSL-settings in /etc/cyrus.conf and deactivate the unencrypted protocols.
SERVICES {
imaplocal cmd="imapd -C /etc/imapd-local.conf" listen="localhost:imap" prefork=0
imaps cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=0
sieve cmd="timsieved -C /etc/imapd-local.conf listen="sieve" prefork=0
lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/spool/postfix/public/lmtp" prefork=1
}
* Since the Cyrus-managementtool "cyradm" cannot use SSL or TLS, you have to define also a "normal" imap-service, which you can secure by only let it bind on localhost. For this imap-service you have to define a additional config-file e.g. /etc/imapd-local.conf which has no SSL, TLS and noplaintext settings in it.
* Since SIEVE can only use STARTTLS and no SSL or TLSv1, you need to define as config-file also
Modify settings in /etc/imapd.conf:

After all the above modifications to the Cyrus-configuration, restart cyrus and watch carefully the output in /var/log/messages !
Testing
imaps
Use a portscanner like „nmap“:
station7:/etc/init.d # nmap localhost | grep imap 993/tcp open imaps
→ imaps is running at port 993
Test MECH=LOGIN:
station7:/ # imtest -a root -u root -m LOGIN station7.example.com -s
verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate
verify error:num=21:unable to verify the first certificate
