That is configured in your inetd.conf/xinetd.conf, the imap daemon doesn't do it
by itself.

Depends on your xinetd.conf; do you have a port=imaps or port=993?

Since SSL/TLS support is the default, did you change anything to build the 
daemon?

If you didn't built it, check that it uses SSL with 'ldd imapd', this should
list libcrypto-0.9.8.so and libssl-0.9.8.so or similar.
