   # imap - imap mail daemon
   #
   service imap
   {
            disable         = no
            socket_type     = stream
            protocol        = tcp
            wait            = no
            user            = root
            server          = /usr/sbin/imapd
            flags           = IPv4
   }
   #
   # imap - imap mail daemon over tls/ssl
   #
   service imaps
   {         disable         = no
            socket_type     = stream
            protocol        = tcp
            wait            = no
            user            = root
            server          = /usr/sbin/imapd

   Dieser wird mit folgendem Befehl erzeugt:

   TUX:/etc/ssl/certs # openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -out imapd.pem -keyout imapd.pem
   Generating a 1024 bit RSA private key
   ..++++++
   .............++++++
   writing new private key to 'imapd.pem'
