What's in your cyrus.conf? Many parameters are global and can be
overridden by prepending a *name* defined in the SERVICES section of
cyrus.conf. The names are merely labels to describe the corresponding
arguments, which is where the actual service is defined. While it is
conventional to use names that match the service (pop3 for port 110,
pop3s for port 995, imap for port 143, etc.), it's not a requirement,
and is why you cannot find pop3_tls_key_file in the source.

If you want to support both STARTTLS on port 143 and POP3 over SSL on
port 995, you need to configure certificates for both names in the
SERVICES section of cyrus.conf.
