The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption
wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or
remote server. The concept is that having non-SSL aware dae-
mons running on your system you can easily setup them to
communicate with clients over secure SSL channel.
stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly
used inetd daemons like POP-2, POP-3 and IMAP servers
without any changes in the programs' code.
