I have cyrus working fine over port 143, but for security reasons, I don't open that port to the big bad Internet. I'd like to get it working with imaps, so I can securely access my mail from anywhere. I followed the instructions here:
http://www.irbs.net/internet/info-cyrus/0207/0265.html
to create my CA, keys, and set up cyrus to point to the right bits.
I imported the cacert.pem file created in that process into mozilla thunderbird (my current preferred client), and it seems to have come in properly (but I'm not sure how to tell, other than the imported CA cert has the same info I provided when I created it).
The problem is, when I tell thunderbird to connect using SSL on port 993, it just hangs, and never displays a password prompt. I confess to not quite understanding SSL, so if there are some obvious steps somewhere to debugging this I should follow, or a FM I should R, please point me at it.
Thanks for any help,
