    About: The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper
    between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. It can
    be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons like POP2,
    POP3, and IMAP servers without any changes in the programs' code. It will
    negotiate an SSL connection using the OpenSSL or SSLeay libraries. It calls
    the underlying crypto libraries, so stunnel supports whatever cryptographic
    algorithms you compiled into your crypto package.
    
    Changes: A critical section was added around TCP Wrappers code that is not
    MT-safe.  A problem which produced a "select: Interrupted system call"
    error was fixed. The use of errno was replaced with get_last_socket_error()
    for Win32. Some FreeBSD/NetBSD patches were made to ./configure. The local
    mode process PID is now logged. The default FQDN (localhost) was removed
    from stunnel.cnf. ./configure was changed to recognize the POSIX threads
    library on OSF. The -O option was added to set socket options.
