Dovecot is installed but actually I just use auth module (for postfix authentication).
In your dovecot.conf example, I don't see the "proxy" command ?
Could you give me a few more details on the "proxy" command usage (ExtraFields/Proxy is not clear for me)?
Regards

For security reasons I prefer to install as little as possible binary (see vulnerability 2011 - remote exploit - STUNNEL).
If you already have dovecot running in proxy mode it's easy to add pop3s. If not, see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy
See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Services search the page for pop3s. A simple example:
ssl = yes ssl_cert =
service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 995 ssl = yes } }
Of course there is a lot more SSL tuning that can be done: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL/DovecotConfiguration

Unless I'm missing something with your request, you don't need dovecot. Any ssl proxy can do that for you, such as stunnel (http://www.stunnel.org/). We use the hardware ssl termination on our load balancers for pop3s, imaps, and smtps.
