Interesting. I didn't know about stunnel. Kevin, if you're seeing this
on a regular basis, you could try that... or switch to offlineimap like
everyone else has for performance reasons.
Sup's IMAP support leaves a lot to be desired and I'm happy to blame
this library. Irritatingly slow, and prone to insane errors like this
one. I don't want to disable it, though, and I sure as heck don't want
to write my own IMAP library. So for the time being we're stuck with it.
