OK, fixed it.  In stunnel.conf, I set chroot = /var/run/stunnel/ (note the
trailing slash).  Also in stunnel.conf, I changed owner and group to setuid
= root and setgid = root.  That did it.  Ssmtp connects on port 465.  spop3
connects on port 995.

But now a couple of new ports show up: "5000 complexx-main" and "5001
complexx-link".  I have no idea what these are for.

TIA,

Tom
