It doesn't?

% grep imap /etc/services
imap            143/udp     # Internet Message Access Protocol
imap            143/tcp     # Internet Message Access Protocol
imap3           220/udp     # Interactive Mail Access Protocol v3
imap3           220/tcp     # Interactive Mail Access Protocol v3
imap4-ssl       585/udp     # IMAP4+SSL (use 993 instead)
imap4-ssl       585/tcp     # IMAP4+SSL (use 993 instead)
imaps           993/udp     # imap4 protocol over TLS/SSL
imaps           993/tcp     # imap4 protocol over TLS/SSL

993 is the standard for encrypted imap
