[imp] Cannot make IMP + IMAP-SSL under Solaris 8 work

[Luis Martinez]

Hi again,

So if this is your problem, then follow my suggestions,

Make an ssl tunnel between an unused port (which you configured IMP to look 
for the imap server) and 993 (where your uw-imap should be listening to)

And that's all, you will be able to use imaps with your php-ssl less setup.

An exmple command of stunnel would be:

/usr/local/sbin/stunnel -s YourWebUser -g YourWebGroup -c -d 9993 \
	-r  localhost:993

So we can assume you have c-client.a.

I'm guessing you mean that configure reports this message, not make.  Are you 
building php as a DSO shared object for apache?  If so, have you built the 
openssl libraries (libcrypto and libssl) as shared libraries as well as archive 
form?  If not, then please go back and try rebuilding openssl with shared 
libraries (e.g., "./config shared") and then try configuring php 
--with-imap-ssl.

*That's* weird (that telnetting to 993 on OpenBSD works), but that's for another 
list.

My guess is that you've built php as a static install for Apache on your OpenBSD 
box. But, I could be wrong.
