encrypting sessions

[chirs charter]

Hello,
I have recently installed the latest Cyrus IMAP
server. I am wondering what do I have to do to encrypt
the client-server transactions so that username and
pasword don't have to go across the wire in plaintext?
I guess I would like to use SSL. How do I implement
this? I havent found any docs on the subject.
Thanks
