Thanks.  That's a pointer in the right direction.  I have another problem
now, though:

 error initializing Binc IMAP: SSL negotiation failed:
 SSL error: unable to use private key in PEM file:
 /etc/opt/bincimap/bincimap.pem: error:0906406D:
 PEM routines:DEF_CALLBACK:problems getting password

I created the bincimap.pem file with:

# cat /etc/apache/ssl.key/server.key /etc/apache/ssl.crt/server.crt >
/etc/opt/bincimap/bincimap.pem

Am I correct in thinking that it's because my server.key file is
passphrase-protected?  If so, how do I go about fixing this?  Should I
remove the passphrase, or can I get BincIMAP to prompt for it at startup,
like mod_ssl does?

I don't know a way of getting Binc to ask for it. I don't think it's possible; nor is it possible to give Binc the password in a config file (at least not as far as I know, which I concede is not a lot). I just removed the password from the key.
