As I understood it, I was using inetd to start the stunnel session to connection
from 993 to 143.
143 works. I've already tested that completely.
As a maybe related issue. If I start stunnel from the /etc/init.d script from
debian -- it fails calling for a pid= to be defined. As you can see from my
conf file, pid= is already defined.
