have a look at the dbz(3) and makedbz(8) man pages that come with inn.
also, from a glance at the web site, they have lots of docs up there and
mailing lists. maybe better to ask inn questions on inn mailing lists?

maybe ask on ports@?

the openssl headers are installed in /usr/include/openssl, with
/usr/include/ssl linked to there, as documented in hier(7). though i

/usr/include/openssl linked to it).
