Please check, whether you have another "libcrypto" on your system. I had
a discussion with Marc Crispin (UW-imap now has SSL-support) who explained to
me, that Kerberos(?) also has a libcrypto, so that he had to hardcode
the path to the Openssl-libcrypto library.
(You already stated that you have 0.9.5a, so the version problem does not
apply to your case).

Best regards,
