From what I can tell this service will only check website certificates.

Can anyone recommend a similar service that doesn't have this limitation, ie one that can check certificates on SMTP, IMAP, and other protocols that aren't HTTPS?

Ah, very nice! Not sure it'll work, but you can specify any port for a website you want to check manually. See if https://www.haveibeenexpired.com/ssl/app.srsc.ru:8443 (replace the host name and port with what you need) works for you?

The automated monitoring (once you sign up and add domains/hosts) only checks HTTPS, so no dice there...

No, sorry - that doesn't work. Results in "Parse Error: Expected HTTP/".
