Thanks for the quick reply :)

That would make sense, from the point of view of what's happening. It seems that the 
FreeBSD port installs it that way though - I didn't set it like that myself. If I run 
imapd from the command line it gives me the following message - 

* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED]

I took this to mean that plaintext logins were disabled, but I guess it could mean 
exactly what is says. If I point squirrelmail at port 143 instead I simply get 

"ERROR
There was an error contacting the mail server.
Contact your administrator for help."

So I guess I've jumped to the wrong conclusion.

Is there anyway to change the settings that imap-wu runs with then - the man page and 
docs at the WU site are very thin on details. Or should I simply recompile imap-wu 
without SSL support (actually I guess that seems like the best idea to me).

Thanks
Ric
