The only information I have gleaned is that it may be necessary to
append the DHParm file to the private key of the imap server.  That
seems to be a rather inelegant way of doings but, if that is the only
way to do so then I need that confirmed. If not, then I would very
much appreciate being told how else to accomplish it.


Not sure about 3.x but that is how it is done in 2.4.x
