[TriLUG] OT: Squirrelmail+IMAP/TLS+FreeBSD+PHP4/5

[Flatfender]

Ok, here is the problem I am having.  In July PHP4 in FreeBSD changed
the way it is installed/configured.  Certain components which used to
be statically compiled in are now loaded as modules.  The most
important of which is openssl. What I used to be able to due and would
like to do again was to specify for Squirrelmail to use IMAP with TLS
to the localhost.  But by the nature of the way Squirrelmail makes
that call OpenSSL needs to be statically compiled into PHP not as a
loadable module like it is now.  Anyone of any suggestions?

Here are the software particulars:
FreeBSD 5.3 Beta3
OpenSSL 0.9.7d - Base OpenSSL
Squirrelmail 1.4.3a - from ports
UW-IMAP-2004a,1 - from ports
PHP4.3.8 - from ports - Also tried PHP5

Now I know I could configure UW-IMAP to allow plain text logins and
then set Squirrelmail to connect to localhost:143, but I would still
like to use TLS.

To help get upto speed, I have tried the suggestions in the following
threads  without sucess.  The only thing I could find on the SM-users
list was a sugestion not to use TLS.
