This morning, I ran across Perdition, which claims to do what I want.
http://www.vergenet.net/linux/perdition/

It hasn't been updated recently except for one security patch, and
the docs are still spotty, but far better than nginx.  I'm gonna
give that a shot and see how it goes.  Available documentation may
be the deciding factor on which route I take.

I may give stunnel a try, too.  In that case, I'd still need an IMAP
proxy, as stunnel merely adds the SSL capability.  We're not gonna
expose our mail server directly to the outside world.
