According to Instructions ala Carrie:

[cobalt-users] Installing SSH2, IPChains, Portsentry, Logcheck,
Tripwire, Chkrootkit, Lionfind, Whois, lcap and more


Turn off IMAP: (thanks to shimi on the cobalt-security list)
http://www.cobaltdiscussions.com/board/viewthread.php?FID=16&TID=5
# pico /etc/inetd.conf
disable imap (do a search for imap and comment out this line:)
#imap    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd imapd
Restart the inet server:
# killall -HUP inetd
#pico /usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/services/services.cgi
Change this line:
$ret=Cobalt::swatch::swatch_set_service_on("imap");
To this:
$ret=Cobalt::swatch::swatch_set_service_off("imap");
Now go into the GUI's Control Panel and just hit the 'Save Changes'
button.
This keeps Active Monitor from grumbling about IMAP being turned off.
