Let's try this one more time, the last time I seem to have missed the
list in the reply... Here goes:

If you don't want to rebuild the packages you can install the stunnel
package and tunnel the local port 143 (imap) to your servers port 993
(imaps).

stunnel -c -d imap2 -r imap.server.com:imaps

Then you can use localhost port 143 as IMAP-server.
