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 daemons 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 program code.
