I have to ask: do you use CVS head or cvs balsa-2-0 branch? head has only  
TLS at the moment (i.e. encryption enabled on the protocol level on a  
connection to imap port) but no SSL (connection directly to port with  
encryption/imaps). It is not difficult to implement - I just had no  
motivation so far to do that.
