I went ahead and used the service script:
add-service.sh imap add-service.sh imaps
This builds the links in /command - I needed to add two lines to dt-service to make this work, but it seems to be happy now. Looks like there are some issues with the multilog and supervise scripts if this process is not followed (at least for me on RH7.3).
I have other issues, but I will post those later.

I'm new to bincimap, so I've probably got something trivial wrong. I've built bincimap from source, using the default ./configure stuff. I'm attempting to run it using djb's daemontools.
If I...

...then it all seems to come up correctly. svcstat shows that it's up.
If, however, I connect using Microsoft Outlook XP, configured to NOT "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)" [1]
Under "Advanced", I've turned on IMAP/SSL, by checking "This server requires a secure connection".
The INSTALL document only talks about what ./configure does, and, as I say, I just used the defaults.
The README document seems a little out-of-date: it talks about "securing your service". AFAICT, the relevant lines are already present in the default configuration files.
I've generated the self-signed certificate using 'make cert', and got a warning from Outlook.
However, every time that I go to "Update Folder List", I get the following error message:
Task 'Synchronizing Hierarchy...' reported error (0x800CCC0E) : 'Could not fetch new headers in the folder (null) for Account peculiar.differentpla.net. Error:Unable to connect to the server..'
Any ideas?
While looking through the bincimap archive, I also found a mail talking about a problem I seem to have:
root 241 0.0 0.0 1236 252 ? S 14:36 0:00 \_ readproctitle service errors: ...ng: unable to stat imaps: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imap: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imaps: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imap: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imaps: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imap: file does not exist?svscan: warning: unable to stat imaps: file does not exist?
What's the cause for this? How do I fix it?
Regards, Roger.
[1] What is "secure password authentication" anyway? Is this just Microsoft's name for MD5 passwords or something?
