You don't want to do that, 444 is your ssl admin interface ;)
(In any case it would be somewhat of a project, and there is nothing there

If you want it to never ever work, edit /etc/inetd.conf, find the line
that starts with imapd , insert a # before it.

run /etc/rc.d/init.d/inetd restart

and it will be gone....

(Are you sure you don't like imap? it's kinda nice you know ;)

gsh
