I didn't try Cyrus, but the latest beta of UW-imap (imap-2000) support TLS.
Setting it up is quite simple:
- Put the services "imaps" and "pop3s" into /etc/services.
   imaps      993/tcp        # IMAP over SSL
   pop3s      995/tcp        # POP-3 over SSL
- Set up inetd to start the imapd or ipop3d when connecting to these services:
   pop3s stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/lbin/ipop3d ipop3d
   imaps stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/lbin/imapd imapd
- Put your server certificate and key into the default location:
   /usr/local/ssl/certs/imapd.pem
   /usr/local/ssl/certs/ipop3d.pem
- Compile UW imap-2000.RELEASE-CANDIDATE* with SSL support by following
  the instructions in docs/SSLBUILD

It's easy, isn't it?

        Lutz
PS. Most people don't like to be asked for a voluntarily offered advice "ASAP".
