Thanks for catching that.

Thanks.  Adjusted  /etc/systemd/system/stunnel.service accordingly.
For anyone else interested, PrivateTmp is described in the
systemd.exec(5) manual.
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html

The template might work exactly when no authentication is involved.

Appears likely.  My intention is that stunnel provides a tunnel in
which POP3 can operate securely. When stunnel is started
interactively, no problem is evident and the MUA authenticates in POP3
inside the tunnel.

The systemd.exec manual cited above has a Credentials section.
Intrigued to study more when I have time.  =8~)

Thx,           ... P.
