[Dovecot] Son't have IMAPS

Hi,

I've installed dovecot and i'm pretty sure it has SSL support built in.

But i don't have IMAPS.

I get all sort of errors.
Thunderbird tells:
"The connection was refused".

If i disable imaps, imap works just fine.
If i enable it, none of them work.

The certificates in /etc/ssl/certs and /etc/ssl/private are the same ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito
