Wait a minute...
IMAP4_SSL is documented as existing in Python 3. And when I run Python
3.2 on a Centos machine, instead of Debian, it includes IMAP4_SSL which
works fine.
[steve@ando ~]$ python3.2
Python 3.2.2 (default, Mar 4 2012, 10:50:33)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-51)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
py> import imaplib
py> server = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('xxxxx')
py> server
<imaplib.IMAP4_SSL object at 0xb7b8632c>
So there's something screwy going on here. Why does my Python 3.2 on
Debian not include IMAP4_SSL, but Python 2.6 does?
