I can confirm also.  I've been unable to use evolution to read my
IMAP/SSL account for a long time because evolution says 'SSL is not
available' (whatever that means).

I just noticed that openssl-0.9 is included in the DragonFly sources,
and this made me think that our non-functioning user applications may
be wanting a more recent version of SSL (just a guess).

So I've just installed the pkgsrc version of openssl and I'm recompiling
kde now.  I should have the results in about two days ;o)

I'm very interested in the 'config' files to see which version of
SSL they decide to use, now that I have two different versions of
openssl on my DragonFly machine.
