Jim,

  If you get to the point that cyrus isn't working ... just load dovecot. It is 
simple to configure and setup for imaps. IIRC, the suse dovecot package contains 
a script to generate the ssl certs (mkcert.sh). Just edit the 
dovecot-openssl.cnf file in /usr/share/doc/packages/dovecot to fit your needs 
and run the mkcert.sh script to install the dovecot.pem certs in 
/etc/ssl/{certs,private} dirs and you're done.

  The entire dovecot.conf for imaps (dovecot-2) will look something similar to 
this:

mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u
passdb {
  driver = pam
}
protocols = imap
service auth {
  user = root
}
service imap-login {
  inet_listener imap {
    port = 0
  }
}
ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem
ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem
userdb {
  driver = passwd
}
protocol lda {
  postmaster_address = postmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
}
