First of all, you can check the SSL section of your bincimap.conf file. There's a "pem file" setting there which should point to your ssl certificate. There are also some other pointers at: http://test.bincimap.andreas.hanssen.name/bincimap-faq.html#q13 If nothing works - 1) can you telnet to port 143? "telnet 143" should give you a greeting. 2) can you reach port 993 with "openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:993"?
