Good point. I'm guilty of that myself.
Here's my stunnel.conf for v4.15:
------------------------- Achilles tendon - cut here -------------------------
; Setup chroot jail for added security
; PID is created here, but config & log files are outside
chroot = /var/run/stunnel/
setuid = nobody
setgid = nobody
; PID is created inside chroot jail
pid = /stunnel.pid
; Some performance tunings
socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1
socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting
debug = 5
output = /var/log/stunnel.log
; Listen for IMAP-SSL connections only on server1's IP
[imaps]
accept = 192.168.2.66:993
connect = server1.bryanlgh.org:143
------------------------- Achilles tendon - cut here -------------------------
Starting stunnel requires no arguments. It doesn't come with an
init script, so I had to hack up an existing one to suit, which
was straightforward.
