Hi Julian,

off the top of my head you want something like this:

perdition -P IMAP --ssl_mode tls_listen_force,ssl_outgoing \
	--outgoing_port 993

This means all outgoing connections will be handled by SSL.
Did you want a mix of SSL and TLS outgoing connections?
If so, perdition would need to be modified.
