All fine and good, but are all the IMAP clients you need to support
SSLv3/TLSv1 capable? If so, you can typically configure the IMAP server
cipherlist to exclude SSLv2.

        DEFAULT:!SSLv2

Some products also let you choose the list of supported protocols (SSLv2,
SSLv3 or TLSv1), but this is less common.
